Package: olpc-kbdshim
Version: 12-2
Severity: grave
Justification: makes package unusable on target systems

olpc-kbdshim's init script has a check to ensure that it's run only on
OLPC hardware.  It checks for /ofw/model; /ofw is where the device-tree
is mounted on OLPC kernels.

I've been working to get the OLPC device-tree code into the upstream
kernel, and it's definitely not going to end up mounting in /ofw.
Instead, it's reusing the PPC /proc/device-tree code, so that's where
it will end up mounting.

Rather than releasing Squeeze with an olpc-kbdshim that doesn't work on
stock Linux kernels, I'd like to get the init script fixed up ASAP to
check for /proc/device-tree/model.  Otherwise, olpc-kbdshim just won't
run at all on OLPC systems with new kernels.
