Description Ulrich Plate (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-12-11 04:42:34 UTC 
This bug only bites people having coreutils upgraded to 5.0.91.

The old `tail -1` syntax has finally been obsoleted and actually produces an
error. The new POSIX conform syntax is `tail -n 1`. So, this needs to be changed
in /etc/init.d/zetagrid. And in /opt/zetagrid/zeta.sh - because the same POSIX
conformity stick has hit `nice -19`, now to be known as `nice -n -19`. 

Go figure. :(

Great, i'll do the changes you suggested and bump the version to -r1 to make sure everyone get's the changes.
