While looking at this bug to fix it, I was pointed to Policy 10.6
which says:

 10.6 Device files
Packages must not include device files in the package file tree.

If a package needs any special device files that are not included in the
base system, it must call MAKEDEV in the postinst script, after
notifying the user[54].

Packages must not remove any device files in the postrm or any other
script. This is left to the system administrator.

Debian uses the serial devices /dev/ttyS*. Programs using the
old /dev/cu* devices should be changed to use /dev/ttyS*.

 Thus, it means that we cannot create device files on install, and we
need to bug makedev package to get zap devices included.

 As it is a bit late, I don't have time to look at it now, so please,
check wich devices must be generated and report it to makedev package.

 Thanks
