Again bluez-utils is depending on udev OR makedev. Eddy Petrişor can I close this as a duplicate bug? I don't think we need four bugs for the same issue. My proposed patch is: if [ -x "$(command -v MAKEDEV)" ]; then echo "Creating device nodes ..." cd /dev; MAKEDEV bluetooth fi Thanks to Martin F. Krafft for patch above also fixing similar problem in fuse-utils #385696. Also policy say it is bad to depend a full path to binary and this patch will obey and use MAKEDEV in the path. -- Johan Thelmén Sweden Falun
Bug#387410: bluez-utils: fails on upgrade
Just a note to Eddy Petrişor. That patch will not work when there is no makedev installed. Instead see the patch in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=387193 -- Johan Thelmén Sweden Falun

Bug#385696: Depend..
Well fuse-utils do not depend on makedev and should not I think. I use udev instead. But why depend on that link? Why not use cd /dev ; MAKEDEV fuse 2>/dev/null || true or this for no output cd /dev ; MAKEDEV fuse 2>/dev/null >/dev/null || true Then if there is no MAKEDEV in path it is ok anyway. I'm not starting makedev on startup, I do not want that link. -- Johan Thelmén Sweden Falun

Bug#328660: Urgency low..
Changes: clamav (0.87-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version - Fixes CAN-2005-2920 and CAN-2005-2919 (closes: #328660) I can not find any policy about it but I think it should be urgency high or atleast medium. This for building faster (if used) and faster moving in to testing. Two weeks for a remote security fix is not that good when the fix is known. Please think about it next time. -- Johan Thelmén Sweden Falun
