small install problem (udev_run_hotplugd)

[Christian Krause]

Hi,

I've found a small problem with the Makefile in
/extras/run_directory/Makefile:

It installs udevd_run_devd as udev_run_devd _and_ as udev_run_hotplugd.
This means, that the correct binary (udev_run_hotplugd) is built but
never installed. Because the wrong udev_run_hotplugd is installed, the
"hotplug compatibility layer" doesn't work anymore and no scripts in
/etc/hotplug/default/ are executed.  In my case hald did not work...


This small patch solves the problem:

diff -uNr udev-070.old/extras/run_directory/Makefile udev-070/extras/run_directory/Makefile
--- udev-070.old/extras/run_directory/Makefile	2005-09-15 01:19:07.000000000 +0200
+++ udev-070/extras/run_directory/Makefile	2005-10-17 23:29:41.000000000 +0200

That is already fixed for the next release:
  http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commitdiff;hw914dfeda9caae155f7dcdbeb06dc8574a6f4ad

which I'm just holding back for possible preparations of the new
input sysfs layout. 071 should be out during the next few days.

Thanks,
Kay
