the final argument "don't
complain, do it yourself" and the others with "get your fingers off
Debian, let the Real Wise Men (TM) do the job".
Please don't get me wrong, I don't want to insult anybody here; I'm
just concerned that these kinds of unnecessary argues irrevocably harm
Debian.
I wish everbody a nice day!

Not quite exactly, as far as I understood, Filip did not send an ITP

Err, I just see that you didn't tell whether you are using devfs or
the "old" ones. In
it is worth the effort?
- By now I don't allow sysfsutils to go into Sarge because it isn't
used yet (udev, diagnostics...). My personal feeling is to wait
until kernel 2.6 stable is in sarge and udev is in unstable and
works.
I appreciate any hints and comments.
arco, do you plan to use the dynamic library of libsysfs for udev? If
so, you have to depend on libsysfs0 anyway and the /sys problem is
solved. If you want to keep linking the static library for some reason
then there may be a different solution. What do you think?
Have a nice day!

7;#include ', all these Win-looking base classes, the
dependency on MFC and the DLL stuff seem to make that pretty hard :-/.
There are not even Makefiles to give it a try.
Unless you managed to compile the stuff (it seems to be very
interesting), I suggest that you close this bug.
Have a nice d
peaking as an user I would like that. Please just don't do
it when it already exists AND there are files in it (or sth different
than sysfs is mounted on it). Creating /dev/shm should be less
problematic.
Have a nice day!
