I noticed that "reportbug linux-2.6" said "no such binary OR SOURCE
package linux-2.6". So I did an "apt-get update" and this fixed the
problem. Which means that really the problem is that the error message
is just plain wrong/confusing. It should says something like "no such
source package linux-2.6".
