** Description changed:

+ SRU justification:
+ 
+ The linaro-image-tools 0.2 package included in the maverick release
+ isn't usable with any of the images Linaro is releasing for 10.11.
+ Unfortunately there has been a lot of development going on on these
+ tools over the past few months that was never uploaded to the archive,
+ only to ppa.  This means the linaro-image-tools package that has been
+ uploaded to maverick-proposed falls well outside the normal rules for
+ SRUs; but on the other hand, the package currently in maverick is
+ useless for all practical purposes, so the risk of regression here is
+ minimal.
+ 
+ Test case:
+ http://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/DailyBuilds
+ 
+ As an SRU this will be subjected to holistic testing by the Linaro
+ release itself.  Our release notes will direct users to the linaro-
+ image-tools package in the linaro-maintainers ppa, which is identical to
+ this SRU except for version number.  These release notes could be
+ amended to direct users to maverick-proposed if and when this SRU is
+ accepted.
+ 
  There seems to be a spurious single quote character in the
  boot_args_options settings for the beagle|igep devices in linaro-media-
  create. The effect of this is that created images fail to boot with the
  unhelpful error message from u-boot:
  
  Running bootscript from mmc ...
  ## Executing script at 82000000
  syntax error
  Unknown command '>' - try 'help'
  
  (Image generated with linaro-media-create r156 and the following command line:
-  sudo /home/petmay01/bin/linaro-media-create --rootfs ext3 --image_file 
1027.img --dev beagle --binary linaro-m-headless-tar-20101027-0.tar.gz --hwpack 
hwpack_linaro-omap3_20101022-59_armel_supported.tar.gz 
+  sudo /home/petmay01/bin/linaro-media-create --rootfs ext3 --image_file 
1027.img --dev beagle --binary linaro-m-headless-tar-20101027-0.tar.gz --hwpack 
hwpack_linaro-omap3_20101022-59_armel_supported.tar.gz
  and tested with qemu:
-  qemu-maemo-system-arm -M beagle -sd 1027.img -serial stdio
+  qemu-maemo-system-arm -M beagle -sd 1027.img -serial stdio
  )
  
  Here's a trivial patch which fixes this for me:
