Hi,

now and again it happens that zfs-dkms doesn't yet support the current kernel 
Debian ships.

If you have linux-image-amd64 installed, a dist-upgrade will try to install the 
latest kernel, which will then fail to configure (and, if your root is on zfs, 
the next reboot with the latest kernel will fail).

To avoid this, it would nice to have a metapackage just like linux-image-amd64 
(and one like linux-headers-amd64) that doesn't depend on the latest Debian 
kernel, but instead the latest Debian kernel zfs-dkms works with.

Us zfs users could then install that metapackage instead of 
linux-{image,headers}-amd64.

Thanks!

AndrĂ¡s
