Package: makedev
Version: 2.3.1-77
Severity: normal

when I 'cd /dev' and './MAKEDEV -v ???' ???= rom OR sg OR usb
it reports it is making them but 'ls' does not show them.
For the tty devices I made them my self by seeing the output of makedev
and then using  'mknod -m OOOO NAME TYPE MAJOR MINOR'.
Do I need to do it with the above as well. Shouldn't makedev do this?
As a short example of problem I make group cpu:
