Package: kpartx
Version: 0.4.9+git0.4dfdaf2b-6
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I did
losetup -f /blabla/foo.img
and then
kpartx -l /dev/loop0
which told me that it was about to create /dev/loop0p1.
This sounded good so I did
kpartx -a /dev/loop0
which did not create /dev/loop0p1, but instead created
/dev/dm-6 along with vaious symlinks in /dev/disk/by-id.
The use of dm-6 makes sense from a technical point of vue, and the
symlinks in /dev/disk are fine, but please add a symlink from
/dev/loop0p1 since that's the "normal" logical name.
Stefan
