reassign 415717 debhelper
retitle 415717 dh_installudev dies if the symlink was created manually
thanks

Hi,

The fix for this would seem to be implicit in whatever solution is found
for the various 'trouble with udev symlinks' reports that are already
open.  The problem is known, but the solution might have to wait until
after etch now I suspect.

I'm punting this to Joey & Marco et al. since they are on the frontline
of whatever happens next with this one.

Cheers,
Ron
