Thanks for your bugreport!

That recent change to netatalk should not affect how it interacts with 
the kernel.  I suspect that what triggered this bug was not changes to 
netatalk but instead simply that _any_ package update will restart 
daemons and (if not loaded already) request the "appletalk" kernel 
module to be loaded.

Netatalk interacts with the kernel through the Linux module "appletalk" 
provided by the Linux kernel, so I believe that kernel panics would be 
a bug in the Linux kernel package, so reassigning.


Kind regards,

 - Jonas
