https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714628 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714628#c0 Summary: collectl: use of /var/lock/subsys unsupported Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Factory Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: hvogel@suse.com ReportedBy: lnussel@suse.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- collectl uses /var/lock/subsys which is unsupported on openSUSE. On openSUSE /var/lock is reserved for device lock files and must not be used for other purposes. Due to the use of tmpfs on /var/lock the subsys directory does not exist anymore either so if your package used /var/lock/subsys for any real purpose it might be silently broken already. Please fix your packge to not use /var/lock/subsys. http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_checks#subsys-unsupported -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
