Bug Description
Please allow syslinux-legacy into main.
This package is syslinux 3.63 uploaded to precise. It is needed to be able to write Ubuntu 10.10 and earlier USB disks in any later version, as the syslinux configuration format changed at this point [1].
The only difference between this version and the copy in 10.10 are rules changes to put a -legacy suffix on files where one is needed and a small patch to make it build under a newer nasm.

Looks fine. Syslinux is easy to maintain and this introduces now new code over what we are already supporting in lucid.
