See http://buildd.debian.org/build.php?arch=&pkg=unionfs

The m68k linux-images (which I built) do not contain any unionfs modules,
the only thing that might come close is ufs, which is included in those
packages. I do not find a directory fs/unionfs in the linux-2.6 source, what
is wrong here? Are we missing a patch, which includes the unionfs driver for
m68k? Are the headers built wrong, they were cross-compiled? Why do you need
to copy the modules into your package, if they were present in the
linux-image, they could just be loaded from there? But maybe I don't
understand the purpose of your package, I have never used it myself.

If you think this is a problem in the linux-image package, please reply to 
debian-kernel@lists.debian.org, so we can fix this for all arches.

Thanks,
Christian
