Package: udev Version: 168-1 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
(I'll use non-technical language as I'm not a programmer) I just installed the daily build (6 May) of the businesscard iso. As it's a text-only installation I noticed udev was broken first because, as when it was broken last month, the framebuffer in the console didn't activate and the network wasn't automatically activated, although running 'dhclient eth0' activated it. Then I installed gpm and while it was loaded on boot it didn't work. Then I installed X and had no keyboard nor mouse in gdm3's screen (had to hard reboot/shutdown). The penultimate message on boot was something like: startpar service(s) failure detected: udev ...failed! Reading some other bugs, I renamed /run to /old-run and now everything seems to be working. I have another sid system and udev works but it seems it's broken in a fresh (minimal) installation. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.38-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=pt_BR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages udev depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.39 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.13-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libselinux1 2.0.98-1+b1 SELinux runtime shared libraries ii libudev0 168-1 libudev shared library ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-17 userspace USB programming library ii lsb-base 3.2-27 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii util-linux 2.17.2-9.1 Miscellaneous system utilities Versions of packages udev recommends: ii pciutils 1:3.1.7-9 Linux PCI Utilities ii usbutils 1:001-1 Linux USB utilities udev suggests no packages. -- debconf information: udev/new_kernel_needed: false udev/title/upgrade: udev/reboot_needed: udev/sysfs_deprecated_incompatibility: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
