Package: arduino
Version: 0018+dfsg-3
Severity: important

When I try to upload a program using the arduino workbench to an Arduino 
Decimilia
AtMega8 if complains:-

avrdude: Device Signature = 0x00000000
avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature
         Double check connection and try again, or use -F to override

The workbench does not provide a means to specify -F.

I found a reference through google that the version of avrdude shipped with 
the arduino package is patched specially to fix this problem (which I think
is something to do with the arduino bootloaded).

Please add this patch (I have no idea where is is to be found) to the Debian
version of avrdude.
