meta-kde-3.1.2 (directory), meta-kde-3.1.2.tar.gz, meta-kde-3.1.2.dsc.

Starting No Flush Daemon: Error: Your kernel is configured with devfs, but devfs is not mounted anywhere. This means noflushd cannot work. Please consult the noflushd README for details invoke-rc.d: initscript noflushd, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing noflushd (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: noflushd E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I've read the README file, and the only thing I saw that referenced devfs was to make (what appeared to be) a dummy entry in fstab. I did - it made no difference. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAadhMjeziQOokQnARArEHAJ458m3XywwUGq1BydskPcdHC9UNGwCfY/Pc yG7qbnXR/u+4ZRJZsY9pNR0= =QItm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
