Bug #665461: makedev: GNU/kFreeBSD needs ttyv[0-9]*.
[Resending after mail server reconfiguration of helo_data! Sorry for that.]
Usertags: kfreebsd
The postinst script is Linux-only. The following change produces a working
package also for GNU/kFreeBSD.
The package is assigned to the Debian QA group, so the glibc-bsd group or
Bdale Garbee are most likely to act on this.
Observe the additional change "chmod g-rw", since otherwise the tty group
wuld have had write access to the device on GNU/kFreeBSD.
Regards,
Mats Erik Andersson, DM
