> * debian/rules, fglrx.dirs, fglrx.postinst:
> - Install the blacklist file in /lib/fglrx instead of
> /usr/lib/fglrx so that the file is available early
> in the boot process when /usr is on a different
> partition (LP: #538071).
> - Ignore errors when trying to update the initramfs
> with -k $CURRENT_KERNEL which is known to fail when
> using chroots (LP: #556653).
> - Make 10fglrx a slave link so that it's removed from
> /etc/X11/Xsession.d when we switch to a different
> alternative (LP: #552903).
> * debian/fglrx.preinst:
> - Make sure that any 10fglrx file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d
> which is not a symbolic link is removed.
> - Remove diversions previously added by xorg-driver-fglrx
> not by fglrx (LP: #552782). Thanks to Steve Langasek
