So, are there any news on all this? I don't have an affected hardware and have no idea how it all related to mtdblock devices. Has anything changed since squeeze? Can this bug be reproduced on to-be-jessie? We've a critical bug for several years... Thanks, /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
