Package: udev Version: 0.093-1 Severity: normal While booting, I get these messages:
-------snip------- INIT: version 2.86 booting Starting the hotplugs events dispatcher: udevdudevd[...]: \ parse_file: line too long, rule skipped \ '/etc/udev/rules.d/025_libsane.rules:540' -------snip------- (The above typed in from memory; it's a single line; "..." is a number.) I seem to remember that the "line too long" line appeared twice on each boot, but I'm not sure anymore. Today (2006-09-08), this message appears only once per boot. The error message appears in /var/log/daemon.log* on 2006-08-12 2006-08-14 2006-08-27 2006-08-28 2006-08-31 08:09:20 2006-08-31 08:09:37 My computer runs daily, an "aptitude update && aptitude upgrade" is executed every 2 or 3 days.
