[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#713916: please catch /usr/sbin/alsactl not yet present

[Marc Haber]

Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.27.1-1
Severity: minor
File: /lib/udev/rules.d/90-alsa-restore.rules

Hi,

/lib/udev/rules.d/90-alsa-restore.rules unconditionally calls
/usr/sbin/alsactl. However, this rule might fire early in system boot
when /usr is not yet mounted, resulting in an error being printed to
the console.

Please consider implementing a condition in the udev rule that no
error message is printed if /usr/sbin/alsactl is not yet available.

Greetings
Marc
