Subject: Bug#286040: please allow permissions.d to follow symlinks
Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2004 08:31:15 +0000	[thread overview]

Subject: Bug#286040: please allow permissions.d to follow symlinks
Reply-To: martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org>, 286040@bugs.debian.org
From: martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org>

Package: udev
Version: 0.048-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

A rule like

  BUS="scsi", SYSFS\{model\}="FLASH", KERNEL="sd?1", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="flash"

works, but a corresponding entry like

  flash:root:flash:0660

in a permissions.d file does not -- it tries to change the
permissions of the symlink instead. Permissions on a symlink are
irrelevant, so I suggest that udev instead follows the symlink
before applying permissions.

Thanks,

[...]
