Yes after some talks on #debian-devel I'm now aware of it, and I won't upload package using mknod instead of makedev. I hope that new version of makedev will appear quite soon. In addition I've filled bugreport against lintian which threated using mknod as warning and not critical error. regards fEnIo -- ,''`.
