Comment 10 for bug 120177

I did a sru verfication based on the above instructions.

I installed multipath-tools on a fesh feisty install. The package installed and ps ax|grep multipathd showed no daemon runing. I can installed the package from feisty-proposed. The installation failed with the following error:

[..]

I think we need to fix this issue before this can go into -updates.

I can confirm that when no prior multipath-tools package is installed the version from feisty-proposed works as expected.
