FYI, the wakeonlan script hasn't changed since at least bookworm
(and this may be much more longer, as the script says 2005, though
I'm wondering whether this is up-to-date).

I've noticed at my lab that packets seem to be sometimes randomly
filtered or ignored. So it may be just luck that etherwake was working
at that time. Unless the difference of behavior is reproducible, you
cannot deduce anything. And if you can reproduce this, you should look
at the differences with wireshark.

Otherwise I think that this bug should be closed and the wakeonlan
package should reenter testing (it has just been removed from
testing).
