+That's likely a ordering issue, related to the loops.
+
+makedev is installed in the end, after python.
+
+One package that requires /dev/null is perl-XML-SAX.
+
+$ urpmq -d perl-XML-SAX
+bash
+dash-static
+glibc
+lib64termcap2
+perl-XML-NamespaceSupport
+perl-XML-SAX
+perl-base
+
+No requires on makedev nor basesystem-minimal.
+So now, what requires perl-XML-SAX before basesystem-minimal is to
+discuss.
+
+Also, the usage of /dev/null in a %post is a ope question. Do we want to
+hide some verbose stuff, or should error be show to user ?
+
+&gt;<i> Since we haven't seen this error before, I would like to look how it
+</I>&gt;<i> performed what he did.
+</I>
+I assume that's a simple basesystem installation. How exactly, that's
+indeed a good question.
