There is a bug in the script. It's already been filed and it's easy to fix. There's a mismatched "{" in the file for the make_devpts() function. Just changed the "{" to a "}" at the end of that function and it'll fix it. For further details and a patch see Bug #56687 via the Debian bug tracking system on the web. Gary
