Comment 7 for bug 974450

irqbalance 0.56 was released in June 2010, and 1.0.3, which Debian Wheezy has, was released in December of last year. I've looked at the 1.0.3 package in Debian and Quantal's 0.56, and the only changes necessary are updating debian/control (XSBC-Original-Maintainer, Maintainer, and Standards-Version fields). All other changes from Ubuntu's 0.56 have been incorporated by Debian's package. I've even successfully built and used Debian's irqbalance 1.0.3 on Precise without problems.

Version 1.0.4 was released on August 27th and contains some bug fixes.
