Package: jfsutils Version: 1.1.8-1 Severity: serious Tags: patch, d-i A user made me attend to the fact that he could not format a jfs partition in Debian installer on amd64. Some investigation learned that jfsutils-udeb was missing in the Packages file in the d-i section.
Some more investigation learned that the following is present in the _main_ Packages file: Package: jfsutils-udeb Priority: optional Section: admin Installed-Size: 1068 Maintainer: Stefan Hornburg (Racke) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: amd64 Source: jfsutils Version: 1.1.8-1 Filename: pool/main/j/jfsutils/jfsutils-udeb_1.1.8-1_amd64.deb A udeb with the .deb extention is of course not correct. The cause is probably a change in cdbs since the package was last uploaded. Currently amd64 is the only architecture where the udeb is in the wrong section because of the rebuild for the recent archive migration, but this could happen for other arches too. The attached patch fixes the problem.
