169041 2007-03-02 19:51 0000 catalyst 2.0.3_pre2 - -a option doesn't work on Gentoo/FreeBSD 2007-10-12 00:08:14 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Hosted Projects Catalyst unspecified All Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 normal --- 1 welp@gentoo.org catalyst@gentoo.org bsd@gentoo.org welp@gentoo.org 2007-03-02 19:51:24 0000 The -a (--clear-autoresume) option does not work on Gentoo/FreeBSD. This is because the /var/catalyst/* files and folders are created with 'system immutable' flag. To remove the 'system immutable' flag from the command prompt, one would run `chflags -R noschg /var/catalyst/tmp`, which removes the 'system immuntable' flag and allows the files/folders to be removed. wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-03-03 07:36:47 0000 You are running the latest _pre, correct? Anyway, I'll look at this once I make my way back to the States and will probably be rolling out a new 2.0.3_pre version with this fix and some others. welp@gentoo.org 2007-03-03 23:14:19 0000 I was using the latest keyworded version on ~x86-fbsd. Which is... *checks*... _pre2 so yes, I am using the latest _pre. wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-03-06 17:36:57 0000 Here's a question, why are the files even created system immutable? flameeyes@gentoo.org 2007-06-08 18:33:53 0000 ld.so, libc.so, a few other files are installed as immutable, to preserve possible removal even by root. wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-06-23 13:55:01 0000 OK. Diego, now that you're "back on payroll" would you be interested in working with me again on trying to get Gentoo/FreeBSD support into catalyst properly? It was a pleasure working with you before and I would like to resume that line of development, provided you're still interested. I have some other ideas that I'm about to propose that, I think, would greatly benefit from having at least minimal Gentoo/FreeBSD support in the upcoming 2.1 branch. I don't expect it to spit out a Gentoo/FreeBSD LiveCD or anything (though that would be freakin' sweet) but I would like for it to properly recognize a Gentoo/FreeBSD system and act accordingly. wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-10-11 23:58:07 0000 OK. I just added a patch which I *think* will work, based on the information given here. wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-10-12 00:08:14 0000 This should be fixed in 2.0.5_pre4. Please test this version of catalyst (or newer) and report back if it does not work. Thanks
