Package: scsitools
Version: 0.8-2
Severity: important

scsi-spin uses the deprecated SCSI_IOCTL_* scheme that isn't supported
by compat_ioctl, thus rendering this tool useless when running a 64bit
kernel. It needs to be converted to SG_IO.

sg3-utils' "sg_start" can be used as a replacement tho (and probably
contains hints to convert scsi-spin).
