It should assure that directories {/var, /var/lib, /var/lib/scrollkeeper} exist and if not create them. But because of bug it tries to check directories {var, /lib, /scrollkeeper}. (stat64 lines in your strace). Situation after fix: open("/var/lib/scrollkeeper", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat("/var", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 stat("/var/lib", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 stat("/var/lib/scrollkeeper", 0x7fffedf951f0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) mkdir("/var/lib/scrollkeeper", 0755) = 0 open("/var/lib/scrollkeeper", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY) = 3 Thanks for the report, I have also notified upstream. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
