Package: multistrap
Version: 2.2.1

The device-table.pl utility of the multistrap package is used to set file
ownership and permissions, i.e. the input file contains line

  /path/to/filename   f    600   1000   1000    -       -       -       -       
-

This results in error message:

  device-table.pl  using /path/to/device_table.txt
  mknod: invalid device type 'f'
  Try 'mknod --help' for more information.

The reason is a missing handler for the type "f" in device-table.pl, causing
the default handling to take place: it passes the parameters (including type
"f") to mknod, which does not recognize such a mode.
