Package: base-files Version: 5lenny3 Severity: normal
I'm trying to track down a nasty problem which I encounter from to time on some of my Lenny machines. Sometimes, when I applied updates via apt or cron-apt, I noticed afterwards, that the permissions on /dev/null suddenly set to 644 instead of 666. So far I was now able to reproduce this behaviour when I invoke dpkg-reconfigure on the base-files package. u...@srv-mfm-vm01:~$ ls -l /dev/null crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 2009-06-09 10:40 /dev/null u...@srv-mfm-vm01:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure base-files u...@srv-mfm-vm01:~$ ls -l /dev/null crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 3 2009-06-09 10:40 /dev/null So does this come from the base-files package itself?
