Following error observed: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dpkg --configure tinc Setting up tinc (1.0.3-3) ... Creating /dev/net/tun... ./MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "net/tun" Failed to create /dev/net/tun. ./MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "net/tun" dpkg: error processing tinc (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 128 Errors were encountered while processing: tinc Grave bug because dpkg fails with an error, and prevents users from installing other packages. This could be related to bug #292450 (which asked if MAKEDEV should be run, and failed if 'n'). Suggestion: As the tap/tun device I'm using is /dev/tun; not /dev/net/tun, perhaps the postinst script should check for the existence of: - /dev/net/tun - /dev/net/tap (can this exist?) - /dev/tun - /dev/tap (not sure about this one either) -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.18-bf2.4 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages tinc depends on: ii debconf 1.4.42 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii liblzo1 1.08-2 data compression library ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3 SSL shared libraries ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- debconf information: * tinc/restart_on_upgrade: true --------------------------------------- Received: (at 292920-close) by bugs.debian.org; 31 Jan 2005 12:53:35 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jan 31 04:53:35 2005 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from newraff.debian.org [208.185.25.31] (mail) by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1Cvb3e-0001z0-00; Mon, 31 Jan 2005 04:53:35 -0800 Received: from katie by newraff.debian.org with local (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1CvaxU-0001gX-00; Mon, 31 Jan 2005 07:47:12 -0500 From: Guus Sliepen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Katie: $Revision: 1.55 $ Subject: Bug#292920: fixed in tinc 1.0.3-4 Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sender: Archive Administrator <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2005 07:47:12 -0500 Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-6.0 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_00,HAS_BUG_NUMBER autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 X-Spam-Level: Source: tinc Source-Version: 1.0.3-4 We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of tinc, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive: tinc_1.0.3-4.diff.gz to pool/main/t/tinc/tinc_1.0.3-4.diff.gz tinc_1.0.3-4.dsc to pool/main/t/tinc/tinc_1.0.3-4.dsc tinc_1.0.3-4_i386.deb to pool/main/t/tinc/tinc_1.0.3-4_i386.deb A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is attached.
