Same result kernel 2.6.28-1-ub

@Susan Cragin -- can see this here, seems to be caused by a change to the serial.h to bring a new ioctl which failed to expose the types used in the construction of the ioctl data structure.

I have made a proposed fix to the headers to sort this out, which I have just sent upstream for consideration. Proposed patch is attached here.

Ah, dupe of 302888, marked mine as dupe of this since this has a patch.

For the record, this also breaks the build of hal and cups.

[Andy Whitcroft (apw)]

Fix pushed up to the Jaunty tree.

Marking this bug high priority to reflect the status of the duplicate.

This bug was fixed in the package linux - 2.6.28-2.2
