Package: udev
Version: 0.093-1
Severity: important

Hi all!

I have a firewire cd/dvd-rw combo which is found when plugging it in,
but only device nodes
        /dev/dvdN
        /dev/dvdrwN
        /dev/cdromN
        /dev/cdrwN
are generated, and N is increasing with each unplug/plug cycle. 

But no device links
        /dev/dvd
        /dev/dvdrw
        /dev/cdrom
        /dev/cdrw
are created.

At least from my understanding of README.Debian in udev unbder "Device
enumeration":
        The cd-aliases-generator.rules rules file will automatically
generate
        rules to create the aliases like /dev/cdrom.
this is not true.

This breaks all multimedia packages (xine, mplayer, transcode, etc etc)
and cd reading/writing software. So in fact the severity could be
much higher!

Best wishes

Norbert
