If we find that out, perhaps we can write our own configuration to that proc file.
You can do that anytime, I have already reverted to "core.%p".
See my last message, you can make that permanent.
Sure - /etc/sysctl.conf
No, it is: /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf
I'd still like to understand the reasoning for making this the default. It seems utterly superfluous. Why do user coredumps have to be handled by systemd and stored under /var/lib/systemd/coredump ?
To have them centralized, so that the admin sees easily how much space is used/wasted by cores.
That does not sounds like a very good reason. Not convincing at all.
Previously, I had to run "updatedb ; locate core" to find them. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
