Bug#246741: diskless-image-simple: postinst runs nonexistent "devfs"
Package: diskless-image-simple Version: 0.3.18.0.4 Severity: important Greetings, When upgrading diskless-image-simple, postinst tries to run "devfs", which doesn't exist (not even in the devfsd package). This is probably a holdover from woody which needs to be updated for sarge. Thanks, -Adam P.

Bug#246741: diskless-image-simple: postinst runs nonexistent "devfs"
tags 246741 patch thanks On further investigation, it's trying to set a variable called devfs, but with a space after the variable name, so it's interpreted as a command. The attached patch fixes the problem. -Adam P.
