Bug#369748: please use mdadm, not mdrun

[martin f krafft]

Package: mdcfg
Version: 1.14
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Please stop using mdrun and use mdadm instead. mdrun will be removed
in a future release. The following (untested) patch should work. You
can use either of mdadm 2.4.1-2/unstable or 2.5-1/experimental for
testing.
