What a load of crap. 0.70-3 *from unstable* will not work *with the kernel 
distributed in unstable* (namely 2.6.12). It fails to insert the needed /dev 
entries. What's worst about this is that it *force* hotplug out of the system 
in order to install a version of udev that doesn't work.

BTW, many bugs have been filed for this problem since yesterday [1] [2] [3]
