Package: udev Version: 0.054-3 Severity: minor
During system startup, the udev package remounts the real /dev directory under /dev/.static/dev/, using the following commands:- mkdir -p /dev/.static/dev chmod 700 /dev/.static/ mount -n --move /tmp /dev/.static/dev This results in a "permission denied" error message whenever a non root user executes the df command on the system, as only root has permissions on the /dev/.static directory:- $ df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 507232 389960 117272 77% / tmpfs 257284 0 257284 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda5 5115304 3045848 2069456 60% /usr /dev/hda6 5115304 1852904 3262400 37% /var /dev/hda7 2555488 732 2554756 1% /tmp /dev/hda8 11882512 3072856 8809656 26% /usr/local /dev/hda9 11357848 3866512 7491336 35% /home df: `/dev/.static/dev': Permission denied none 10240 2576 7664 26% /de While this doesn't really affect the functionality of udev, it's kind of ugly, and I can't help thinking there should be a better way.
