The following document found at the CVS mirror used to build the Debian package 
indicates that the upstream CVS tree is no longer maintained:

The Linux-MTD development is now all in GIT.

See http://git.infradead.org/?p=mtd-2.6.git;a=summary or pull directly 
from the git tree at git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6.git

Thus, it would be appreciated if you synced this package with the new upstream 
GIT tree.
