After I issued startssh in a new tab, startssh works fine in all tabs again. I was using keychain-2.6.1 at the time but diffing against 2.6.2 does not show anything relevant to this bug. betelgeuse@pena ~ $ emerge --info Portage 2.1_pre6-r5 (default-linux/x86/2005.1, gcc-3.4.5, glibc-2.4-r1, 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre16 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.4.2-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -mfpmath=sse -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -mfpmath=sse -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/src/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache collision-protect confcache cvs distlocks fixpackages metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict stricter verify-rdepend" GENTOO_MIRRORS=" http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo http://lame.lut.fi/linux/gentoo " LANG="en_US.utf8" LC_ALL="en_US.utf8" LINGUAS="fi" MAKEOPTS="-j2 " PKGDIR="/home/pkg/" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/mnt/checkouts/overlays/betelgeuse /mnt/checkouts/gentooexperimental/gentoo-java-experimental" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 aac acl acpi alsa apm arts audiofile avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth bzip2 bzlib cairo cdb cddb cdparanoia crypt cups dbus divx4linux dri dts dvd dvdr dvdread emboss esd firefox foomaticdb freetype gif gstreamer gtk2 hal java jpeg kde kdeenablefinal libg++ libwww logitech-mouse mad makecheck mikmod mjpeg mmx mmx2 mp3 mpeg ncurses network nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia offensive ogg oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib png qt quicktime readline real rtc samba spell sse sse2 ssl subversion svg symlink tcpd theora threads truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales vorbis win32codecs xcomposite xml xml2 xv xvid zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_mouse input_devices_keyboard kernel_linux linguas_fi userland_GNU video_cards_none video_cards_nvidia" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, LDFLAGS
Sounds like a permissions problem prevented keychain from removing the empty lockfile. I'll put in a check for that.
Thanks, fixed in 2.6.5 (unreleased). I might wait for some more interesting changes to appear before making a release, since this is a highly unlikely situation. --- keychain.sh (revision 89) +++ keychain.sh (working copy) @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ # Maintained April 2004 - present by Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org> # $Id$ -version=2.6.4 +version=2.6.5 PATH="/usr/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/ucb:${PATH}" @@ -216,6 +216,7 @@ tl_faking=false tl_emptyonce=false + tl_removedempty=false unset tl_oldpid tl_lastmesg # Set up timer @@ -236,7 +237,8 @@ # Try to lock for $lockwait seconds while [ $lockwait -eq 0 -o $tl_current -lt $tl_end ]; do - if tl_error=`umask 0377; echo $$ 2>&1 >"$lockf"`; then + tl_pid=$$ + if tl_error=`umask 0377; echo $tl_pid 2>&1 >"$lockf"`; then havelock=true return 0 fi @@ -284,14 +286,16 @@ # nb: fall through to sleep... - else # tl_pid is blank - if $tl_emptyonce; then - warn "removing empty lock file" - rm -f "$lockf" - tl_emptyonce=false - # give this another go-around, no sleep required - continue - fi + # tl_pid is blank + elif $tl_removedempty; then + die "failed to remove empty lock file" + elif $tl_emptyonce; then + warn "removing empty lock file" + rm -f "$lockf" + tl_removedempty=true + # give this another go-around, no sleep required + continue + else tl_emptyonce=true # fall through to sleep fi
