Hi,

attached is a patch for udev-add.c to set file permissions.
The problem is that the resolving of owner/group name to its numeric id
needs shared libc libs. What does this mean for klibc?


gcc --static  -o udev udev.o udev-add.o udev-remove.o udevdb.o logging.o namedev.o tdb/tdb.o tdb/spinlock.o -lsysfs -lc -Llibsysfs 
udev-add.o(.text+0x3bf): In function `create_node':
udev-add.o(.text+0x2f6):/usr/src/udev/udev-add.c:122: warning: Using 'getpwnam' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking
udev-add.o(.text+0x32d):/usr/src/udev/udev-add.c:128: warning: Using 'endpwent' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking


thanks,
