Sorry for late response. Can you reproduce issue on modern
installations?

Bug#624289: sysvinit-utils: bootlogd fails to start: ioctl TIOCGDEV: invalid argument

Severity: normal

Hi,
bootlogd fails to start. I investigated with printf-debug, and found that
ioctl(0, TIOCGDEV, kdev) fails and strerror(errno) is: Invalid argument.
Also, when removing the ioctl stuff, consolename is correctly found. Why not
continue into the function even if ioctl fails ?

Bootlogd worked fine until 13rd or 14th or 15th of april. And sysvinit-utils
was not upgraded at that time. So, the bug may come from another package.
