Previous state (since the inception of linux-kernel-headers up to what
will be the case for lenny):

release arches= linux-kernel-headers
hurd= gnumach-dev, hurd-dev
kfreebsd= kfreebsd-kernel-headers

Future state:

release arches= linux-libc-dev
hurd= gnumach-dev, hurd-dev
kfreebsd= kfreebsd-kernel-headers


I don't anticipate the 'linux-libc-dev' name to change for a good long while,
and I cannot speculate with any confidence on what the non-Linux ports will do.


Hope this non-ansewr helps.
