Package: udev
Version: 0.079-1

I get this when installing:

Setting up udev (0.079-1) ...
/sbin/udevsynthesize: line 38: /sys/bus/ac97/devices/1-1:unknown:
Permission denied
dpkg: error processing udev (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned

This is because I have this symlink
"/sys/bus/ac97/devices/1-1:unknown codec"
which is being split into two words inside udevsynthesize.

I've done a bit of googling and cannot find a definitive answer as to
whether filenames with spaces are allowed in /sys.  There are a few
other files in /sys which have spaces in them but none which are used
by udevsynthesize.

There is a line in udevsynthesize which seems to try and catch this
case, however it doesn't work due to the filenames being stored in
$list.  If the filenames were fed in through a pipe of a  "for file in
.." then this works okay (but I guess you may hit maximum command line
limits).

Thanks,

Adrian
