[Bug 474660] Re: drbd8-utils not dependent on drbd8-source

[Dave Hall]

Given the karmic kernel ships with DRBD support, the dependency is wrong
- regardless of the plan.

DKMS is great for the desktop, but I really don't like having build-
essential installed on production net facing servers, and where possible
any productions servers.

I am guessing a fix for karmic is unlikely to happen given where things
are at in the lucid release cycle, but I would strongly recommend that
this is fixed properly (not using dkms) in lucid.  As DRBD is useful in
server environments, I'd like to see it remain in the stock server
image.

As a work^Whack around I have created a meta package drbd8-source-hack
which provides drbd8-source, which is less than ideal but it works.
