872 * fix scd-all and sg-all entry points. The latter is just an alias for 'sg',
873 but the former was genuinely missing. Switch sg devices to numeric suffix
874 to comply with kernel's devices.txt. Closes 27490.
875 * close 26586, since I'm pretty sure it's a weirdy not caused by the package.
876 * add ISDN devices, closes 26971.
877 * add cfs0 for CODA, closes 23815.

881 makedev (2.3.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
883 * New upstream version. This is a *significant* change!
884 This is a move (back?) from the short-lived makedev that depended on a
885 non-free parser to the one that is just a shell script. We will now be
886 more like other Linux distributions, no longer depending on a non-free
887 hunk of code to build the makedev package, and some porting and other
888 issues will get better.
889 * With the major change in upstream code, several bugs are not relevant
890 any more. Therefore, close 12949, 18037, 18807, 20665, 22648, 22868,
891 23771, 23898, 24477, 24572, 25660, 25840, 26058.
892 * add support for /dev/ptmx, built as part of pty*, closes 23612.
893 * add support for /dev/ed[ab], closes 23887.
