Playing around with rules I stepped over a strange thing. I played with device-mapper rules, but the bug is about general symlink handling. 1. My rules did set this: NAME="dm-0", SYMLINK="mapper/main-slash" That results in /dev/dm-0 being a device-node and /dev/mapper/main-slash is a symlink to it. 2. Swapping NAME and SYMLINK NAME="mapper/main-slash", SYMLINK="dm-0" and running udevtrigger changes dm-0 to be a symlink to correct target. BUT: It changes mapper/main-slash to be a symlink to itself. Calling udevtrigger a second time will correct symlink.
