Bug#378696: kpilot: postinst script should check if device is there, before using chmod

[Matthias Heinz <m.heinz@gmx.net>]

Package: kpilot
Version: 4:3.5.3-3
Severity: minor


Hi,

the postinst script should check if the device is really there,
before using chmod, because i get an error on every upgrade. I've got a usb connector for my palm and i'm using
udev, so the device is only available if i'm pressing the hotsync
button.

A simple test -c should be enough i think.

This is just something for the air, not very important.


Regards,
Matthias
