- in portage since 18 Dec 2009 (new package) - small - no reported bugs - probably not widely tested in Gentoo
Some minimal instructions to test: ph@localhost /tmp $ mkdir test ph@localhost /tmp $ cd test ph@localhost /tmp/test $ lockfile-create test ph@localhost /tmp/test $ ls -l total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 ph users 2 Jan 27 18:10 test.lock ph@localhost /tmp/test $ lockfile-check test ph@localhost /tmp/test $ echo $? 0 ph@localhost /tmp/test $ lockfile-remove test ph@localhost /tmp/test $ ls -l total 0 ph@localhost /tmp/test $ lockfile-check test ph@localhost /tmp/test $ echo $? 255 It may be worth checking on an NFS-mounted volume too.
Test passed on x86, works also fine here on an nfs-mounted directory.
x86 stable, thanks Andreas for testing
Install and works fine on stable amd64 chroot too. No chance to test on NFS.
Re comment #4: Test was with old liblockfile-1.06-r2. But just retested with unstable 1-08. Same good results here.
Stable on amd64 all arches done
