Package: tinc Version: 1.0.3-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Opon `apt-get install tinc` for new tinc version; the following question is asked:
Setting up tinc (1.0.3-1) ...
You don't seem to have the necessary devices available. If you want, I can create them for you now, or you may create them later yourself with the command:
cd /dev && ./MAKEDEV netlink
Do you want me to do this for you now?
If user answers 'n' (i.e; because the devices/configuration/etc has already been set up),
installation fails:
Ok. But you must create these devices before tinc can work! dpkg: error processing tinc (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 20
Errors were encountered while processing: tinc
Grave bug because it stops dpkg from finishing, and prevents users from installing other packages.
