Pkg xen devel - Jul 2006 - Bug#379092: xen-utils-3.0: xen-backend.rules placed incorrect directory

Package: xen-utils-3.0
Version: 3.0.2+hg9697-1
Severity: critical

The xen-backend.rules file is stored in /dev/udev, but it is not
correct.
I made the symlink into /dev/udev/rules.d/ so it works.

It is also mentioned at the following place:
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/396

Shoudln't xen-utils' postint be creating the symlink? Why does it fail
in your
situation? If the symlink gets created why is putting the file in /etc/udev
incorrect... An last but not least: why severity critical? ;)

This is correct, check the udev policy.

This is done by the postinst.
