Package: bluez-utils

Followup-For: Bug #338743

reopen 338743
thanks

Hi,

Upgrading to version 3.1-4+b1 failed on my unstable system with the
following message:

Creating device nodes ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/bluez-utils.postinst: line 38: ./MAKEDEV: No such file or 
directory
dpkg: error processing bluez-utils (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 bluez-utils

Line 36 in bluez-utils.postinst (as suggested by Marco) appears to be
the culprit:
        cd /dev && ./MAKEDEV bluetooth

On my system, MAKEDEV resides in /dev/.static/dev/, not in /dev.
Additionally, I found /sbin/MAKEDEV and /dev/.static/dev/MAKEDEV to be
the same, so I replaced the line above by a simple run of '/sbin/MAKEDEV
bluetooth' and it appears to work (didn't test whether bluetooth works,
though).

I don't want to pretend I understand all this stuff, I just wanted to
make sure this doesn't go unnoticed. I guess severity 'grave' still
applies, so I left it at that.

Thanks,
Jochen.
