Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: udev
I just upgraded a system from Intrepid to Jaunty, and ran into a lot of
problems afterward due to incorrect permissions in /dev. The most
obvious were /dev/null and /dev/random, both of which were 0660
root/root (matching my umask, FWIW).
A reboot (which was tricky due to the above) restored correct
permissions.
stat shows that the inode was changed during the upgrade:
File: `/dev/null'
Size: 0 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 4096 character special
file
Device: eh/14d Inode: 5862 Links: 1 Device type: 1,3
Access: (0660/crw-rw----) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 0/ root)
Access: 2008-10-10 16:25:20.000000000 +0100
Modify: 2008-10-10 16:25:20.000000000 +0100
Change: 2009-01-16 15:08:00.892201634 +0000
I am not sure which package is at fault. I will attach a dpkg log and
find -ls output to this bug.
