Description:   Opened: 2003-05-10 08:31 0000 
From the patch announcement:
The following 3 line change to fam enables large file support.  Without
it, fam will send delete events to anyone interested in a large file.

Nautilus users can see the results of this bug by creating a large file
(e.g. "dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/bigZero bs=256k count=8000") and then
selecting it with nautilus.  Without a patched fam, the file will
disappear.

---

This is an updated ebuild for fam-oss that incorporates the patch (originally
from the message referenced in the URL). I have tested it on two systems with
positive results (it does fix the bug).

The stop() portion of the rc script is still broken, btw.

yep tested and works well.

the test case wasn't exactly correct tho, it was more like :

dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/bigZero bs=256k count=8001 

or count >8000. anyway, indeed the file appears and then disappears when fam gets around to it. i've committed this to fam-oss-2.6.9-r3. thanks.
