hey, cool.
I think you've found the solution to a bug I have in Debian. thanks ;-)

@Jean-Luc: please try changing the entry matching your unit in the
.fdi file and try again.
if the fix is confirmed, I'll make a patch for 2.2.2-3 and will do the
necessary upstream.

yup, I'm still waiting for the list to be opened.

thanks again Kjell!
