thanks
Hallo Gaudenz,
I've prepared an NMU for mouseemu (versioned as 0.15-8.1) and
uploaded it to DELAYED/2. Please feel free to tell me if it
should be delayed longer.
Please note that I not just fixed the installation problem but also moved udev
from Required-Start to Should-Start in the init script, as udev is only
optional for mouseemu.
Regards.
