Bug#694826: unblock: s390-tools/1.16.0-2

Please unblock package s390-tools

The udev rules of s390-tools referred to the now non-existing udev tool
vol_id. The update to 1.16.0-2 correct this and use blkid instead. This
eliminates a spurious warning on-boot.

Hi,

I am really a novice with DEBIAN (LINUX in general) and am having a problem
trying to apply this fix. I have tried 'aptitude' but it doesn't seem to
find any updates.
I don't seem to find the 'how to do' doc.
How do I download and apply a fix?

/etc/apt/sources.list lists all the package sources your system knows
about. You can add a new "deb" line with wheezy replaced with sid to
have access to newer packages that didn't trickle down to your
distribution yet. You need to do »sudo apt-get update« to fetch the
lists. But your system would then prefer the newer packages, hence you
need something like this:

***@spike ~ % cat /etc/apt/preferences
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=testing
Pin-Priority: 500

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 300

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: -1

Then you can do »sudo apt-get install s390-tools=1.16.0-2«.

In eight days it will probably enter wheezy, but obviously more eyes
are appreciated.

Kind regards
Philipp Kern
