yep, especially when upstream implements the right means to determine the
correct device :-) - and we simply provide all device specific config files in
different subdirectories.

ok, the short version:
libnl [http://git.kernel.org/?p=libs/netlink/libnl.git;a=summary and on
git.debian.org/pkg-fso/libnl2.git too] is needed for newer cornucopia-stuff.
It is in development since early 2008 without any release yet. After confering
with Michael Biebl, the libnl1 maintainer, we decided to have libnl2 snapshots
alongside libnl1. As Michael needs libnl1 only as dependency of network-
manager he had no direct interest in maintaining a libnl2 snapshot. So we
agreed I would take it.
I fixed a lot of stuff in it and hopefully will have contact with upstream in
the future to coordinate some confusing things but it should suffice for now.
