Package: devfsd Version: 1.3.25-19 Hi,
I installed devfsd for the first time on my system, and encountered a problem with the postinstall. I am pretty sure it is because the postinstall scripts assume the existence of deprecated directory /etc/devfs/symlinks.d. See the below output, where I have enclosed the offending line with asterix: Selecting previously deselected package devfsd. (Reading database ... 8811 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking devfsd (from .../devfsd_1.3.25-19_i386.deb) ... Setting up devfsd (1.3.25-19) ... *find: /etc/devfs/symlinks.d: No such file or directory* devfsd: No devfs on /dev, not starting. devfsd: No devfs on /dev, not starting. Now, I see that the stable version of devfsd, 1.3.25-1, does include this directory in the package. So perhaps the postinstall script has been written to assume an upgrade scenario. I suggest there might be other instances where the script does not make the required assumption that an install can be either a fresh install or an upgrade.
