Exchanging the condition is a better alternative, see my next posting on this issue. Run tested too. In reality, who has the time to write a proper dmesg command for GNU/Hurd? So you think requesting a patch for apt in experimental is considered a better alternative, knowing the delays of Debian maintainers.
