So I've let udev stagnate for a while, mostly because I'm a fool and real life has given me a lack of time for anything serious in Arch-land.
Anyway, I've rebuilt udev 126 (we're on 119, eek!) and made what changes I thought ideal. I would love to stick with strictly vanilla rules, but some of them don't work properly for us, so we still have a tiny bit of patching to do.
Now... I'm looking for a helping hand here. I've built the package the best I can, and installed it, but I have not rebooted. I am going to commit these changes to svn trunk, and upload a package for anyone to play with.
Please, if you have a little time, take a look at all of it - the rules, everything, give it a once over and see if we can eliminate any of the patching done to the stock rules. Some of it (i.e. the addition of some GROUP directives) needs to stay, but others I am unsure about
i686 package here: https://dev.archlinux.org/~aaron/udev-126-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz An x86_64 build of trunk would be appreciated.
Here's -1, you havn't committed -2 http://dev.archlinux.org/~james/udev-126-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
Will look over it and test when I get a chance.
Doh... committed now
Just a bump here. I'd like to throw this in testing if someone else can verify I didn't make machines unbootable. When this hit's testing, it will require a rebuild of packages which contain udev rules (move from /etc/udev/rules.d/ to /lib/udev/rules.d/). When I move to testing, I will make a todo list for these packages
I tried udev-126-2-i686.pkg.tar.gz. My machine still booted fine. The only problem that I noticed is that the /dev/sg0 device that it creates for my external USB DVD/CD-RW doesn't have the write permission for the optical group: $ ls -l /dev/sg0 crw-r----- 1 root optical 21, 0 2008-08-29 18:42 /dev/sg0 The permissions for sr0 are correct though: $ ls -l /dev/sr0 brw-rw---- 1 root optical 11, 0 2008-08-29 18:42 /dev/sr0 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
