           Summary: 50-default.rules with broken tty rules?
           Product: Codex
           Version: stable grimoire
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: disk
        AssignedTo: sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
        ReportedBy: BearPerson AT gmx.net


On my system, there seem to be some weird links for /dev/tty??:
/dev/ttya0 -> pty/s0
/dev/ttyaa -> pty/s
/dev/ttyab -> pty/s
/dev/ttyb0 -> pty/s0
generally, a lot of symlinks pointing to the same device.
The corresponding rule in 50-default.rules is
KERNEL=="tty[p-za-e][0-9a-f]*", NAME="tty/s%n", SYMLINK="%k"
While I agree that a simple /dev/tty/s42 is cleaner than /dev/ttyra, the rule 
should at least work ;-)
It seems that %n isn't actually distinct on the tty's, and even expands to an 
empty string on some.
Same goes for the pty rules, obviously.
