Package: udev
Version: 0.054-3
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
The command 'echo "done."' at the end of the 'restart' action is
sometimes not executed, even if the udev was successfully restarted.
The result is the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /etc/init.d/udev restart
Recreating device [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
rather than the expected
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /etc/init.d/udev restart
Recreating device nodes...done.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
This is because of the following line in the make_extra_nodes()
function:
[ -e etc/udev/links.conf ] || return
If the file doesn't exist (eg. because the script is not being run from
the / directory), then the "return" is used. As no return value is
specified, the function returns the exit status of the previous command -
the file test that just failed. The script starts with
#!/bin/sh -e
so this is a fatal error, and the script exits without running the
remaining actions.
The following two-character change corrects this:

Note: I am using dash as /bin/sh. However, the same behaviour was
observed with bash, so (for once) dash isn't to blame.
