Package: udev
Version: 0.056-2
Severity: normal

When doing pre-seeded, automatic installations, installing udev during the
second stage installer causes at least the ssh and cvs packages to fail to
install correctly.

I know thhe extra/linkx.conf file comments declared that we should never even
mention it and that there are lions around, but I'm willing to mention it to
fix this issue. :)

The following patch fixes the ssh failure to generate its keys during the
postinstall script due to a lack of /dev/random:

+M random       c 1 8
 M ppp          c 108 0
 D loop
 M loop/0       b 7 0


I am still tracking down where the cvs failure is. It throws the following
error:

  Couldn't reopen stdin at /usr/sbin/update-inetd at line 29

It appears to be related to /dev/tty, but I haven't figured out what is
wrong yet. After a reboot, cvs completes its install without a hickup.
Maybe you guys know what the problem is?
