fglrx 8-12 for Lenny



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hello,

We the fglrx maintainers think, that it would be the best to release
lenny with 8-12-x instead of 8-7-3. it fixes many bugs like the X11
crash bugs with wine, missing 2.6.26 kernel support and a bunch of
another upstream issues has been addressed. also the packaging itself is
now much cleaner (patch system instead of a self hackish one etc) and
some more or less documentation fixes.
The changeset is in opposite to the lenny candidate a bit bigger, see below.
It also fixes two quite important bugs (clashing diversions: #475007 and
bashishm: #489575)

The last two noted bugs could also be fixed by a 8-7-4 upload, but I
hope we may release it with 8-12.

Any objections?
