Hi Russ,

Thanks a lot for providing the new package!

I've tested and can report that the module builds just fine now on sid
amd64.

Unfortunately, it doesn't load though:

aurich64:/home/andree# /etc/init.d/openafs-client start
Starting AFS services:FATAL: Error inserting openafs
(/lib/modules/2.6.18-1-amd64/fs/openafs.ko): Unknown symbol in module,
or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Failed to load AFS kernel module, not starting AFS

dmesg has:

openafs: Unknown symbol tasklist_lock

I found this on the web, not sure whether it helps:

Cheers,
Andree

PS: I'll be off to bed pretty soon - it's past midnight in Sydney, so if
I don't respond in the hours to come I'm sleeping. ;-)
