Control: reopen -1

Hi Daniel,

Debian Bug Tracking System <ow...@bugs.debian.org> (2025-01-14):

Sorry, that cannot work either, for the same reason as before: anything
stored in /dev goes away when (re)starting.

I'd expect having to detect + fix the missing directory at runtime to be
the (only?) solution.

Maybe let's keep this bug report open at important severity for the time
being? I've worked around this issue for Trixie Alpha 1 (via [1]), so
it's no longer on the critical path. Then, depending on whether we keep
embedding haveged in d-i, either we (I) can work on a patch that could
be submitted upstream to do the mkdir dance at runtime, or we can drop
haveged-udeb altogether. Doing that research isn't on my timeline for
Trixie though.

Would that work for you?
