I'm sorry, but you have not addressed my question. Detection of changes is handled via the udev rule. The udev rule does not depend on the prior existence of this file; it simply does:
KERNELS=="*", ACTION=="*", DEVPATH=="/devices/*", RUN+="/bin/touch /var/lib/lsvpd/run.vpdupdate" If this udev rule is correct, its behavior can be simulated via the following: # apt-get install libvpd-2.2-2 # ls -l /var/lib/lsvpd/ total 0 # apt-get install lsvpd # ls -l /var/lib/lsvpd/ total 468 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 479232 Jan 22 21:27 vpd.db # /bin/touch /var/lib/lsvpd/run.vpdupdate # ls -l /var/lib/lsvpd/ total 468 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 22 21:28 run.vpdupdate -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 479232 Jan 22 21:27 vpd.db # lsvpd > /dev/null # ls -l /var/lib/lsvpd/ total 492 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 22 21:28 run.vpdupdate -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 479232 Jan 22 21:28 vpd.db -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23917 Jan 22 21:28 vpd.db.2016.1.22.21.27.30.gz # None of this requires the stamp file to be shipped in the package. And this also still doesn't address the problems, identified in my first reply, with shipping such a stamp file in a library package. So please show what actually fails by not having this file in the package, because I don't see it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1492895 Title: Ubuntu 14.04.03 Missing file - run.vpdupdate in libvpd package To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvpd/+bug/1492895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
