Is this package still used by anyone? Even the main page says "MAKEDEV is largely obsoleted by udev on modern systems."
I have a feeling the new "five second boot" article and resulting competitions may revive MAKEDEV. However, I think the script would be much better off in [unsupported] where the people playing with this stuff have more access to it.
Well, if you really want all the devices for your computer, you can run udev once and just copy the /dev dir.
