Installed it just now (as it finally showed up in the repos), seems
to be working fine now, thanks!

Thanks for the private reply.
Good to know that extlinux again works.

Is it okay for you that bugreport #710212 also gets your feedback?
If 'yes': just reply to this E-mail, it has Reply-To set to the BTS.


Cheers

 Attempting to narrow down the cause of this bug led me to an
 interesting discovery.
 
 There's a rather large difference between the
 /usr/sbin/extlinux-update files in 3:6.00~pre4+dfsg-7 and
 3:6.00~pre4+dfsg-8 that appears (in part, at least) to be related to
 this issue.
 
 This difference also exists in 3:6.00~pre4+dfsg-9.

For what it is worth: this from syslinux (3:6.00~pre4+dfsg-10)

   * Correcting typo in extlinux debhelper install file (Closes: #710306).


Please try the new version and report back.


 
 Here's the diff output from 3:6.00~pre4+dfsg-7 to 3:6.00~pre4+dfsg-8
 and 3:6.00~pre4+dfsg-9:
 
 12,34d11
  _EXTLINUX_DIRECTORY=/boot/extlinux
 

Thanks.
A request: Please get the habit to use the '-u' flag of `diff`.

Example:  `diff -u previous.file newer.file`


This way we get the same output as `svn diff` and `git diff` give.


Cheers
