Hi,

your package produces a udeb (alsa-utils-udeb) which creates an empty
directory in an aliased location:

lib/debian-installer-startup.d/

Shipping files/directories in aliased locations is no longer allowed an
will trigger the "aliased-location" error
which will prevent testing migration going forward.

This directory is created via debian/alsa-utils-udeb.dirs, and while the
udeb package was updated in 1.2.10-1.1 to use non-aliased locations for
its files, this particular spot was missed apparently.

Seeing that debian/alsa-utils-udeb.dirs is not actually needed, the
attached debdiff simply drops this file.


Please consider to apply the attached change with your next upload.

Regards,
Michael
