i've overseen that it's amd64 only, sorry.

oviously someone's gotta do it if you guys can't control your editors,
as well as you also seem not to care about polluting my previous clean
packaging with such things.

last time i took a more active role, you were even rambling that i shall
not upload a package. guess what i'm doing since? taking care about the
things you don't, and stick with that for the moment.

apart from that, from all the people which are listed in uploaders, i'm
clearly one of the active ones, although i don't do that much. your
'blame' is totally unappropriate here.

for your information because you're implying things you have not enough
information about: 2.6.24 was intendet to be pushed to testing some
weeks ago, and that quite fast because .23 was a bad kernel release and
did not make it to testing. hence, l-m-e uploads were *conservative*
(various reasons; amongst others, remembers that some architectures
can't keep up with too frequent uploads of kernel stuff, that some
architectures are even not building stuff for days, and that d-i is
heavily depending on working l-m-e-2.6) so that it can migrate asap
(which turned out to be different, later).

when 2.6.25 enters sid, there will be new, non-conservative uploads of
l-m-e with new modules/new architectures for existing modules.
