[pve-devel] [PATCH] Support Debian Jessie in DAB

DAB doesn't support most of the *current* versions of Debian/Ubuntu,
either.  It's badly in need of an update to make these new releases
available, and support for the testing versions would be nice to have as
well...  There's a bit of trickery you can pull to trick DAB into thinking
it's creating a template for one version when it's really another (by
specifying your own repos in the config), but some of the internal logic
DAB uses to resolve conflicts with using OpenVZ instead of a dedicated
kernel doesn't work with these newer versions, as the way they work wasn't
known when DAB was last being maintained.  So even the trickery doesn't
really work all that well.

This is a good change, and probably a decent starting point for getting the
other releases supported.
