Package: user-mode-linux
Version: 2.6.32-1um-3
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

would you please consider splitting the `user-mode-linux` package in
two separate ones: a "host" package, containing the "linux" binary and
its manpage and dependencies, and a "guest" package containing the
kernel modules?  The "linux" binary is not neeeded in UML images, and
the modules are not needed in the host where "linux" is running.

Best regards,
Riccardo
