No problem here with 2.0.35, I get 59.8 with all kernels (P150) Mine is
compiled by make-kpkg from a tarball on a slink system (with a handful of

I usually find the new files available in the early afternoon (MST), but
some mirrors are slower at updating than others.
I expect you will find it in unstable/.../admin later today.
