>From the looks of it: Nothing. This is a code example from http://cgit.freedesktop.org/DeviceKit/DeviceKit-disks/tree/src/part-id.c : g_print ("DKD_PARTITION=1\n"); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_SCHEME=%s\n", //part_get_scheme_name (part_table_get_scheme (partition_table_for_entry))); part_get_scheme_name (part_table_get_scheme (partition_table))); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_NUMBER=%d\n", partition_number); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_TYPE=%s\n", type != NULL ? type : ""); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_SIZE=%" G_GINT64_FORMAT "\n", size); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_LABEL=%s\n", label != NULL ? label : ""); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_UUID=%s\n", uuid != NULL ? uuid : ""); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_FLAGS=%s\n", flags_combined); g_free (type); g_free (label); g_free (uuid); g_strfreev (flags); g_free (flags_combined); } else { g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_TABLE=1\n"); g_print ("DKD_PARTITION_TABLE_SCHEME=%s\n", part_get_scheme_name (part_table_get_scheme (partition_table))); } Looks like someone is unable to spell printf. And it is also very unclear to me why this has to be in /lib/udev at all. It seems to add nothing but redundant information and bugs. Maybe the DDs could start asking upstream a few questions before blindly accepting things like that? That might save them a few bug reports later on.
