Another kernel release, another broken OpenAFS build. Fortunately, this one’s easy! The upstream 1.4.8 release already works on kernel 2.6.28, so the package just needs to be upgraded to 1.4.8.
Please sync openafs 1.4.8.dfsg1-1 from Debian unstable.
Changelog since last revision in Ubuntu jaunty:
openafs (1.4.8.dfsg1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release. (Closes: #511535)
- Support 2.6.28 kernels. (LP: #303112)
- Check at compile time that the kernel has keyring support rather
than building non-functional modules. (Closes: #500850)
- Include vos clone man page. (LP: #324449)
* Apply upstream CVS deltas:
- STABLE14-libuafs-updates-20081229: prerequisite for other deltas.
- STABLE14-linux-truncate-race-20090109: avoid race condition during
truncation.
- STABLE14-linux-i-size-20090112: further fix for truncation race.
- STABLE14-linux-truncate-cleanup-20090113: further truncation fix.
- STABLE14-osi-probe-check-result-cope-with-enoent-20090115: fix for
syscall probing.
- STABLE14-linux-2629-20090115: support for 2.6.29 kernels.
(Closes: #513680)
- STABLE14-rx-idledead-only-ignore-keepalives-20081222: rx bug fix to
not ignore other ping packets.
- STABLE14-rx-rdwr-writeproc-race-20081228: fix rx race condition that
could result in reuse of freed memory.
- STABLE14-rx-do-not-race-current-packet-20090105: fix rx race
condition.
* Use make libafs_tree to generate the tree for the kernel module
compile rather than copying the entire source tree.
* Compress the source in openafs-modules-source with bzip2 instead of
gzip to reduce the package size.
* Make dynroot the default for new installations. It works much better
with systems that don't bring up their network until late in the boot
process, such as wireless laptops. (LP: #249240, #318605)
* Mention libpam-afs-session instead of libpam-openafs-session in the
description of libpam-openafs-kaserver, and mention libpam-krb5 by
name. Thanks, Philipp Kaluza. (Closes: #501308)
* Suggest module-assistant auto-install in README.modules and be clearer
that building one's own kernel is not required. Thanks, Anders
Kaseorg and Lutz Goehring for suggestions. (LP: #295897)
* Allow time-daemon to satisfy the openafs-fileserver recommends in
addition to ntp, allowing for openntpd. (Closes: #508258)
* General improvements to debconf configuration handling.
- Do not abort the config script if we have no default realm and
dnsdomainname fails. (LP: #274886, #318132)
- Do not abort postinst if we can't resolve any host name for the
cell. Just continue in that case, omitting any configuration for
the local cell. (LP: #322054)
- Correctly set the default for AFS_CRYPT from the existing config.
- The cache size is high, not critical, since we have a default.
- Don't create the client ThisCell if no local cell was specified.
- Improve the leading comment in afs.conf.client. Users can edit it,
but any changes other than the setting values will be lost.
- Remove the openafs-fileserver/bosconfig_moved template, which would
only be shown on upgrades from pre-1.2.0 versions.
- Standardize coding style and always quote strings.
* Update to debhelper compatibility level V7.
- Use dh where possible in debian/rules.
- Use dh_lintian to install Lintian overrides.
- Eliminate the configure target and do all the work in build.
- Do more in the install target and less in binary, matching the
default command stacks in dh.
- Use a debian/clean configuration file to let dh clean do more of the
work rather than using rm commands in debian/rules.
* Abort the config script rather than exiting successfully if the
debconf shell module is not available. The config script should never
be run in the absence of debconf, so if this fails, something deeper
is wrong and we shouldn't blindly continue.
* Add ${misc:Depends} to all dependencies.
* Add explanations for the Lintian overrides.
* Use set -e instead of #!/bin/sh -e in maintainer scripts.
* Remove server documentation from openafs-modules-source.
* Translation updates:
- Spanish, thanks Francisco Javier Cuadrado. (Closes: #514452)

Debian is in release freeze, so just to warn people on the Ubuntu side, I
currently have no plans to upload a new OpenAFS package of 1.4.8 until
after lenny releases.
