Details

Description:

The file:

/usr/lib/initcpio/install/memdisk

contains the line:

add_file /lib/initcpio/udev/01-memdisk.rules /lib/udev/rules.d/01-memdisk.rules

However, this should actually be:

add_file /usr/lib/initcpio/udev/01-memdisk.rules /lib/udev/rules.d/01-memdisk.rules

as the file has moved from /lib to /usr/lib.

As a result, things like mkarchiso don't work properly.

Additional info:
* package version(s)

mkinitcpio 0.8.4-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

Run build.mk in the archiso package releng directory. You will see an error like this:

==> ERROR: file not found: `/lib/initcpio/udev/01-memdisk.rules'
