Newer udev not performing %-substitutions on OWNER and GROUP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a udev rule that sets the ownership of a device node based on the result of a PROGRAM run, e.g.:

	..., PROGRAM="echo 1000", OWNER="%c"

This works in Fedora 10 (udev-127) and Ubuntu 8.10 (udev-124) but not in Fedora Rawhide (udev-141) or Ubuntu 9.04 (udev-141). Further investigation reveals that on the affected systems, substitutions appear not to be working at all for OWNER and GROUP keys. (I tried %c, %m, %M, %n, and $result.) Replacing OWNER="%c" with OWNER="1000" works for me, as does SYMLINK+="%c", so the rule is being properly executed.

Is this syntax still supported for OWNER and GROUP? udev(7) claims that it is.
