Hi Attached is an updated debdiff, which also fixes src/prog/gpm-root.y's expectation that uts.release is always made up of 3 components. Linus did start out with an empty sublevel definition when bumping the version to 3.x - initializing it with zero (3.x.0) is only a temporary stopgap to not break existing, but inherently broken, software immediately.
This debdiff, which contains the changes made in v1, is loosely based
upon #632749, #633878, #633880 and several other packages that needed
fixing.
Regards
Stefan Lippers-Hollmann
