retitle 449049 postinst incomplete if installed in chroot
tags 449049 +patch
thanks

Please change your postinst script to call /sbin/MAKEDEV. The link in /dev is not available in chroots, and thus making your postinst be incomplete if the package is installed into a chroot.

Besides the incompleteness, it also gives an annoying warning about the missing MAKEDEV.
