Package: udev
Version: 0.056-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software


During startup, udev runs at a priority 4 after the initial run of
mountvirtfs at pri 2, and it unmounts /dev/pts while it fribs the
ramdisk onto /dev, but doesn't remount /dev/pts afterwards. This means
the system is broken for all the startup scripts until the later run
of mountvirtfs at 36.

In particular, this breaks the functionality of bootlogd on my system
(which is using devfs because its nfs-diskless booted).

Not really convinced this merits severity critical, but by a literal
reading of the severity specs...

A patch is pretty trivial - just add a thingy opposite to
unmount_devpts to run after mount_extra_nodes

Hope its not too late to fix this for sarge!
