Note to add:
- When upgrading with zypper dup (YAST upgrade handles this automatically) users want to remove the following entries from /etc/fstab if present
tmpfs /dev/shm devpts /dev/pts sysfs /sys sysfs proc /proc proc
This is particularly important for gnome users,
Uhm, pretty much all SUSE systems have these lines
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0
They are already marked "noauto" since aeons because the init scripts mounted them anyway, but the entries were kept in fstab in case.... in case you need to do something with it ;)
So if GNOME requires that they be nuked from fstab, you better come up with a solution Real Fast Now, because everybody is going to have them.
I did not find any clean way to do this cleanup in packages, there seems to be no known working tool in the base system to cleanly remove mount points from fstab programatically..(as opossed to hacks with sed)
The particular gnome-terminal error is due to the /dev/pts entry.
Note that this is nothing new, it should have been fixed when systemd was introduced in 12.2 or so.. but fell through the cracks.
