[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#398372: xen-utils-common: installation fails: ln: creating symbolic link `/etc/udev/rules.d/z60_xen-backend.rules' to `../xen-backend.rules': No such file or directory

[Lucas Nussbaum]

Package: xen-utils-common
Version: 3.0.3-0-1
Severity: serious
Justification: makes package uninstallable
Usertags: grid5000

Hi,

During a piuparts run over all the packages in etch, I ran into a
problem with your package:

Setting up xen-utils-common (3.0.3-0-1) ...
ln: creating symbolic link `/etc/udev/rules.d/z60_xen-backend.rules' to
`../xen-backend.rules': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing xen-utils-common (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 xen-utils-common
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

The full log is available from 
http://ox.blop.info/bazaar/buildlogs/20061113/

The piuparts run was done on about 40 AMD64 nodes of the Grid'5000
platform, using a clean chroot containing an etch i386 environment
(not unstable).  Internet was not accessible from the build systems.

About Grid'5000:
Grid'5000 is an highly reconfigurable experimental Grid platform
gathering 9 sites and featuring a total of 5000 CPUs. It serves as a
testbed for research in Grid Computing. See https://www.grid5000.fr/
