Package: linux-image-2.6.18-4-alpha-smp
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-11
Severity: normal

I recently installed squid, and noticed that it was complaining:

comm_select_init: epoll_create(): (78) Function not implemented

It seems epoll_*() always return ENOSYS on alpha; more details can
be found in this Gentoo bug and l-k thread:

Version: 2.6.20-1

Since 2.6.20 the epoll syscall definitions are correct for alpha.
