Being curious and learning I didn't have the udevinfo symlink, I |
| 22 |
created it and ran it: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
# ( cd /sbin ; ln -s udevadm udevinfo ) |
| 25 |
# udevinfo |
| 26 |
the program '/bin/bash' called 'udevinfo', it should use 'udevadm info |
| 27 |
<options>', this will stop working in a future release missing option |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
I understand this to mean that the symlinks are obsolete and are being |
| 30 |
deleted by newer ebuilds. |
