Description of problem: On boot, udev reports line 772 of 60-libsane.rules is too long. Appears to be a comment...... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sane-backends-1.0.18-1.fc6 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Harald, could udev maybe just ignore too long _comment_ lines like the one it complains about in this case -- it's a large number of scanner models covered by one vendor/product code? While I could just take the rules and cut off lines that are too long (how long may they be anyway), I think in this case allowing such long comments (udev won't be doing anything with them, will it?) would be beneficial.
Udev rule lines can be 512 chars long. Sounds like a _very_ long comment. :)
It is ;-). Still, it should be easy to read the line into that buffer, check the buffer if it's a comment and only complain if it isn't.
can the comment be splitted in multiple lines?
