Bug Description

Binary package hint: dmraid

(Originally reported against dkms on ubuntu, LP #320200)
dmraid must not call udevadm trigger --action=add in postinst.
This will have utterly dire consequences for the installed machine.

Major bugs will be apparent corruption of mounted filesystems (e.g.
"/usr: data error") until a reboot.
And critical bugs include the entire /dev changing to root:root/660 on
upgrade.

Simple fix is to use --action=change.

Cheers,
Giuseppe.

This bug was fixed in the package dmraid - 1.0.0.rc15-1~exp6ubuntu1

---------------
dmraid (1.0.0.rc15-1~exp6ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Sync with Debian, introducing a few changes, which will be in Debian's
    next revision:
  * debian/initramfs/dmraid.initramfs-hook/dmraid: create udev rules dir
    before copying each udev rule
  * debian/dmraid-activate: Refactor code to allow for special casing of
    raid groups and subsets
  * debian/patches/05_kernel-event-handling.patch: Drop, as this was breaking
    RAID0 activation for all metadata types, and the kernel event handling
    setup is present in rc15 anyway (LP: #310928)
  * debian/libdmraid-dev.links: Symlink libdmraid.so since pointing to a broken
    symbolic link in the install file causes the build to FTBFS

dmraid (1.0.0.rc15-1~exp6) experimental; urgency=low

  * [51d68d1] debian/patches/07_isw_metadata_normal_state.patch: Fix
    Metadata is not put in the NORMAL state after dmraid rebuild is
    started manually
  * [8165a84] debian/patches/08_isw_rebuild.patch: Fix ISW Metadata is
    corrupted after rebuilding is started

    cl2vcs
  * [d832984] Added libdmraid1.0.0.rc15 symbols file

    (LP: #310928)

dmraid (1.0.0.rc15-1~exp5) experimental; urgency=low

  * [f23f890] debian/patches: Deleted old patch 08_promise-metadata-

  * [e40b076] debian/initramfs/dmraid.initramfs-hook/dmraid: New udev in
    Ubuntu has the default rules installed into /lib/udev/rules.d, so
    refer also to udev rules file in /lib/udev/rules.d
  * [fed9520] debian/dmraid-activate: Ignore case distinctions when grep
    for "No RAID disks"
  * [c85b78f] debian/dmraid.postinst: call udevadm with --action=change
    (Closes: #512771), (LP: #320482)
  * [8d88132] debian/control: Remove priority and section fields in the
    binary package, and fix duplicate-short-description lintian warning
