Package: sysfsutils Version: 2.1.1-6 Severity: important
When the value part of an entry in /etc/sysfs.conf contains a whitespace it gets incorreclty parsed by the init script and therefore fails. `/etc/sysfs.conf`: ``` bus/virtio/drivers/virtio_blk/virtio1/block/vda/cache_type = write through ``` error: ``` syntax error in /etc/sysfs.conf: 'bus/virtio/drivers/virtio_blk/virtio1/block/vda/cache_type' 'write' 'through' ... failed! ``` # dpkg --status sysfsutils Package: sysfsutils Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: utils Installed-Size: 67 Maintainer: Guillem Jover <guil...@debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Multi-Arch: foreign Version: 2.1.1-6 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.34), libsysfs2 (>= 2.1.1), sysvinit-utils (>= 3.05-4~), pci.ids Pre-Depends: init-system-helpers (>= 1.54~) Conffiles: /etc/init.d/sysfsutils 597d2442fa3a55417cf3e49edeea6b6e /etc/sysfs.conf c11f380832980cdee233b7412ff4a04c Description: sysfs query tool and boot-time setup The sysfs is a virtual file system found in Linux kernels 2.5+ that provides a tree of system devices. This package provides the program 'systool' to query it, which can be used to list devices by bus, class, and topology. . In addition this package ships a configuration file /etc/sysfs.conf which allows one to conveniently set sysfs attributes at system bootup (via an init script).
