Howdy,
This is actually a bug in makedev. The potato version contains
the following lines:
makedev sunmouse c 10 6 $mouse
symlink sunmouse mouse
These created the sunmouse device, but then immediately replaced
it with a symlink to mouse.
The woody version contains the following:
makedev sunmouse c 10 6 $mouse
symlink mouse sunmouse
With this, the device is created and then a symlink from mouse to
sunmouse. Since this has already been fixed, I'm closing this
bug.
Matt
