Package: libsane
Version: 1.0.19~cvs20071213-2
Severity: critical
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Hi,
I'm not sure if the severity is appropriate (maybe I'm just upset because I
spent nearly two days to identify the problem) but I think it corresponds to
the Debian definition as it seriously affect other programs (udev). If I'm
wrong, feel free to downgrade.
When I install the 1.0.19~cvs20071213-2 package, udev behave very weirdly:
- a lot of modules are not auto-loaded (nearly all)
- /dev sub-directories are not created (e.g. /dev/input) even when manualy
loading the modules
- the modules needing firmware can't find them (e.g b43 for airport)
The strange thing is that the only udev related change between -1 and -2
package seems to be the udev rules file move from /etc/udev/
to /etc/udev/rules.d/.
When trying to identify my udev problem, I couldn't find a trace of udev in
the logs, so I can't tell you what's the problem. :,( Maybe the problem comes
from udev itself.
If I can help you (with the help of the udev people I think) don't hesitate to
ask.
Sincerely,
Yannick
