Package: module-assistant
Version: 0.10.4
Severity: important
module-assistant does not work properly for 2.6.18-rc1, as there was a
change in include/linux/version.h which removed UTS_RELEASE:

kbuild: introduce utsrelease.h
include/linux/version.h contained both actual KERNEL version
and UTS_RELEASE that contains a subset from git SHA1 for when
kernel was compiled as part of a git repository.
This had the unfortunate side-effect that all files including version.h
would be recompiled when some git changes was made due to changes SHA1.
Split it out so we keep independent parts in separate files.
Also update checkversion.pl script to no longer check for UTS_RELEASE.

For example, the loop-aes package gets the following filename:
loop-aes-_3.1d-3+2.6.18-rc1-10.00.Custom_i386.deb
And installing it fails:

I filled a similar bug for kernel-package, which is affected as well.
