[Debian-ha-maintainers] Bug#714210: DRBD 8.3 userland incompatible with 8.4 kernel modules

[Berni CED]

Package: drbd8-utils
Version: 2:8.3.13-2
Followup-For: Bug #714210

I confirm this bug.

If you install drbd8-utils along with kernel 3.9.8-1 from sid and try to
use, for example, drbdadm, you'll get messages saying you should upgrade
drbd-tools. The bad thing happens when the tool try to talk to the 
kernel module: it hangs waiting for a reply.
If you reboot with this package installed, you might not reach the login
prompt because the init script hangs on the kernel module, preventing 
the login daemon to start. I had to login via ssh. For me this was
reproducible on two machine, with the package installed but not
customized yet.
