Hi Johan,

well I've rebuild 1.4.2-3 from feisty on edgy and use it without problems (-4* 
did FTBFS).
I tried right now an edgy rebuild of 1.4.4-1 from feisty and it works too (only 
quick tests
with an afs client).

IMHO we should skip the patched 1.4.2 and go to plain '1.4.4-1' ;)    So what 
'we' can do is to
try 1.4.4 and report success/failure here.

I use a little bit different method that uses dch, so the selfbuilt deb version 
is smaller than a
backported one  (~ach0edgy1 < ~edgy1 ).   In my sources.list in edgy I have:

deb-src http://apt-proxy:9999/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted universe
multiverse

to make building backports easier.

   mkdir temp
   cd temp
   apt-get source openafs   # <-needs the feisty deb-src like entry above
   cd openafs-1.4.4/
   dch -v 1.4.4-1~ach0edgy1 -D edgy "rebuild on edgy"
   debuild -us -uc
   sudo dpkg -i ../openafs-modules-source_1.4.4-1~ach0edgy1_all.deb

  # module assistant can be use as normal user too, but for whatever reason 
still do it on root (*flush*)
   (cd /usr/src/ && sudo module-assistant update)
   (cd /usr/src/ && sudo module-assistant build openafs)

    sudo /etc/init.d/openafs-client stop
    sudo dpkg -i 
/usr/src/openafs-modules-2.6.17-11-generic_1.4.4-1~ach0edgy1+2.6.17.1-11.35_i386.deb
    dpkg -l openafs-* | grep ^i
    ls ../*1.4.4-1~ach0edgy1*.deb
   # for a client, e.g.
    sudo dpkg -i ../openafs-client_1.4.4-1~ach0edgy1_i386.deb 
../openafs-kpasswd_1.4.4-1~ach0edgy1_i386.deb
    sudo /etc/init.d/openafs-client start


I can provide the debs and srcs in an apt-repo if there an need.
