After installing CentOS 5 (x86_64) from http://download.openvz.org/contrib/template/precreated/cento s-5-x86_64-default.tar.gz everything work perfectly.
But when I install some software (ImageMagick) by using 'yum' the package 'vzdev' will be removed and I am no longer able to login into the VE! When I try to login ('vzctl enter NNN') I am receiving the error
enter into VE NNN failed
Unable to open pty: No such file or directory
After some research I discovered that the package 'udev' (udev-095-14.9.el5.x86_64.rpm) is the reason for this! When I install a clean CentOS 5 and invoke 'yum -y install udev' I see
[...]

Installing: udev ######################### [1/2]
Removing : vzdev ######################### [2/2]
Installed: udev.x86_64 0:095-14.9.el5
Complete!
and I am unable to login...
When taking a closer look at 'vzdev' I see:
# rpm -q --provides vzdev
dev
udev = 084-13
vzdev = 3.3.13-1.4.swsoft
Hm, what is that for? There is an older 'udev' inside this package! Is there a newer version of 'vzdev' somewhere?
Any ideas?
