Package: beep Version: 1.4.3-1 Severity: grave Tags: upstream Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, After today's upgrade to version 1.4.x, beep no longer works and pops the above error. After checking its man page, I found out that it tries to access these devices, in that specific order /dev/input/by-path/platform-pcspkr-event-spkr /dev/tty0 /dev/vc/0 and although I have the 1st one (the pc speaker), beep does not seem to be able to access it. If I am correct. from the new developer's page in github, I found out that there is this udev rule that needs to be present. https://github.com/spkr-beep/beep/blob/master/90-pcspkr-beep.rules If so, please add the above udev rule to your package. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages beep depends on: ii libc6 2.28-6 beep recommends no packages. beep suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
