Package: devfsd
Version: 1.3.25-19
Hi,
I installed devfsd for the first time on my system, and encountered a
problem with the postinstall.
I am pretty sure it is because the postinstall scripts assume the
existence of deprecated directory /etc/devfs/symlinks.d. See the below
output, where I have enclosed the offending line with asterix:
Selecting previously deselected package devfsd.
(Reading database ... 8811 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking devfsd (from .../devfsd_1.3.25-19_i386.deb) ...
Setting up devfsd (1.3.25-19) ...
*find: /etc/devfs/symlinks.d: No such file or directory*
devfsd: No devfs on /dev, not starting.
devfsd: No devfs on /dev, not starting.
Now, I see that the stable version of devfsd, 1.3.25-1, does include
this directory in the package. So perhaps the postinstall script has
been written to assume an upgrade scenario.
I suggest there might be other instances where the script does not make
the required assumption that an install can be either a fresh install or
an upgrade.
Regards,
Shaddy
