Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.1.1.1
Severity: normal
If a package needs any special device files that are not included in
the base system, it has to call makedev' in the postinst' script, after
asking the user for permission to do so.
"makedev" is not a command on my system, but MAKEDEV is. I suspect this is
just a typo.
