Problem Description:
udev creates the tape/by-id/ nodes for st* device but fails with nst devices, (or vs versa)
(I WILL PUT THIS AS AN ATTACHMENT ALSO)
The scsi_id program is returning no serial numbers in some cases.

This appears to be a bug report against the userspace scsi_id command.

According to the manpage, Patrick is the lucky duck ;)
