Hi Frank, Thanks for the information. Do you know if changing from "udevinfo" to "udevadm info" will be completely compatible? I.e. is "udevadm info" already available when "udevinfo" is ?
Otherwise I'd have to add a check for old systems and that path in the code would grow obsolete after a while... cheers -henrik On Mon, Apr 13, 2009 at 01:09:16AM +0200, Frank Blendinger wrote: > Hi, > > using the GNUpod package from Debian unstable, you will get a lot of > deprecation warnings because udevinfo is called. > > I wanted to report this to Debian, but somehow my mail vanished, so I do > it right here.
