Package: udev
Version: 167-3
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system


Had upgraded to udev_169-1_amd64.deb yesterday.

System failed to bootup today, and was complaining about inability to 
read disk uuids. Found that the kernel recognises the various partitions 
on /dev/sda; but does not create the required devfs or whatever. 

Right now running udev v. 167-3 and /dev/sda* entries are there. And system 
is tootable too - obviously. 

So, udev 169-1 is breaking the system. 

(ps- I get an error about libuuid not being a symlink while updating the 
initramfs; 
but I guess that is not related). I was able to boot the system only because 
there is a kernel installed outside of apt/dpkg framework, and whose initramfs 
was
not upgraded. hmmm... I may be wrong too.
