I have figured out why udev seems to not work with this version of coreutils. It is executed using “/bin/sh -e” as a command interpreter, and the behavior of cp has changed such that it throws an error and returns exit status 1 with the cp command in /etc/init.d/udev at system startup. I have not yet figured out if this is a legitimate change in cp’s behavior, or if this is a bug in cp within coreutils itself. However, adding “&& exit” to the end of the cp command executed in /etc/init.d/udev fixes the problem. The good news is that the testing package that I have available can be updated just as soon as I track down the root cause of the issue…
Is anyone looking at including this new coreutils into Hardy? -- please update package coreutils https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130299 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
