Other people are experiencing the same kind of problem. You can find
there: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=376017 (in the
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi/axiom_ftbfs.debdiff?bug=376017;msg=10;att=1
file) the solution used by the Ubuntu people (namely Soren Hansen
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>). (Interesting lines are at the end of the monolithic
