Package: udev Version: 0.076-3 Severity: normal The ownership and permissions for all device-mapper devices differ from other block devices on the system (root:disk, 0660):

The incorrect permissions make it hard to use the "disk" group, e.g. for backup tools such as amanda. In short, I would very much like to 1) Have the default permissions of LVM/device-mapper devices be 0660. 2) Have the default ownership be root:disk. 3) Have the default volume group directory permissions be 0775 (including /dev/mapper). 4) Have the default volume group directory ownership be root:disk. This is also a problem for sarge, as well as unstable. If this is possible to fix by tweaking permissions.rules, that would be very handy (but for volume groups, it's not possible to know the names in advance, unlike /dev/mapper/).
