Description Dirk Mueller 2014-01-24 10:01:32 UTC

On a minimal 13.1 install, kvm_* is autoloaded, and permissions of /dev/kvm are: 

0600 root:root /dev/kvm

when installing "kvm" package, a 80-kvm.rules is installed that fixes permissions to root:kvm, however that only has an effect after reboot. 

It would be nice if the %post script would try to reload and reapply the rules, something like : 


%post
if [ "$(readlink -f /proc/1/root)" = "/" ]; then
  /sbin/udevadm control --reload-rules  || :
  /sbin/udevadm trigger || :
fi
