Thanks! Right, it's a hack (similar to my
manpages-installation.patch), but it'll do for now. I won't send that
to upstream, though.

That's indeed the right point to fix, and once we find a better
condition, I'll send that upstream. We don't actually care about the
kernel in calibre, so a better hack would be to just pin "isfreebsd"
to False and "islinux" to True in the Debian package.

Would you have an idea to tell apart Linux userspace from a "real" BSD
userspace? Unfortunately I don't have any BSD experience.

Thanks,

Martin
