[[email protected]: Bug#221739: /etc/hotplug/usb.agent generates 100s of lines of error output]

Package: hotplug
Version: 0.0.20031008-1
Severity: normal
If there's an unparseable line in /lib/modules/modules.usbmap, usb.agent generates hundreds (in my case, over 600) lines of output during the boot; specifically, it repeatedly prints out the environment, which includes all the functions it has just loaded.
Easy fix: change this:
--------------------------------------------------------
while read line
do
# comments are lines that start with "#" ... # be careful, they still get parsed by bash! case "$line" in
\#*) continue ;;
esac
--------------------------------------------------------
to this:
--------------------------------------------------------
while read line
do
# comments are lines that start with "#" ... # be careful, they still get parsed by bash! case "$line" in
\#*) continue ;;
"") continue ;;
esac
--------------------------------------------------------
(note the added line in the case statement.) It might also be a good idea to count the lines in modules.usbmap and report the one that fails to parse... I still have to hunt down which one it is. :)

Ben Okopnik

modules.usbmap is generated from depmod. It should NEVER be edited by hand.
