Though, according to the preinst script, shouldn't the file be renamed if it was modified? This also didn't occur on my system. True that, so far, I'm the only bug reporter experiencing this. Anyway, I also have a laptop which is installed debian testing. udev is installed as version 125-7 as I put it on hold a while back and I forgotten why. But, I only update this laptop every one or two months. On the laptop: $ md5sum /etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules 1f478f185e658dc887f196147ef3857b /etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules And (as per preinst script): $ dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}' udev | grep 60-persistent-storage /etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules 1f478f185e658dc887f196147ef3857b /etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage-tape.rules db3a5c1e5075450c3aeb4e283f8fa109 So, this one should be deleted according the the preinst script. I'm going to upgrade this within the next day or so and forcefully the udev package that is on hold. I'll follow up how that goes. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
