Bug Description
Binary package hint: microcode.ctl
The current version of microcode.dat is newer than the one that microcode.ctl checks for, so that systems with old microcode will not be automatically updated and systems with the new microcode will re-download the new microcode every time microcode.ctl is configured.
The postinst script needs MC_ID="Wed May 10 17:03:12 CST 2006" changed to MC_ID="Thu Jan 11 15:31:26 CST 2007". (Although it would be nice to have some kind of >= MC_ID check instead of == MC_ID.)
