Package: hotplug
Version: 0.0.20040329-21
Followup-For: Bug #300726

The latest hotplug tries to create /usr/local/lib/firmware which is
valid according to policy 9.1.2, but it doesn't use a method which
handles /usr/local mounted read-only. This can cause a failure to
install. Please change the postinst code to create this dir to
something similar to what is suggested in 9.1.2. Thanks.

Subject: hotplug: no /usr/local/lib/firmware

Package: hotplug
Version: 0.0.20040329-17
Severity: minor

Hi,

/etc/hotplug/firmware.agent mentions /usr/local/lib/firmware but that
directory is not created by the package. As per the Debian policy
manual 9.1.2 it is okay for packages to create empty directories under
/usr/local

Please consider creating the /usr/local/lib/firmware directory.

Thanks,
Anand
