version=3.0.2
Package: libsysfs1
Version: 1.2.0-1
Severity: normal
Please can you move libsysfs into /lib ?
The multipath tools rely on this library for device identification and they
really need to be started before /usr is mounted if it is on a different
partition.
----- End forwarded message -----
libsysfs is small (about 39 KB), does not have any dependencies other
than libc6, and tools querying /sys during bootup (when /usr/ is not
yet available) are reasonable, so I'm not opposed to doing this.
Is there any opposing opinion? Should this be done now / post Sarge /
never?
Thanks,
Martin
