Description Jacobo Reveles 2009-10-29 06:33:23 UTC
I used the following command after properly emerging dev-util/lafilefixer:

lafilefixer --justfixit

but it crashed with the following error:
/usr/bin/lafilefixer: line 118: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory

it works if I use any other options avilable like --help or --license

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge dev-util/lafilefixer
2. run: lafilefixer --justfixit


Actual Results:  
crash with message: /usr/bin/lafilefixer: line 118: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory


Expected Results:  
find and fix *.la files

Comment 4 Jacobo Reveles 2009-10-29 06:55:41 UTC
I just got the same error running revdep-rebuild:
/usr/bin/revdep-rebuild: line 520: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory
Comment 5 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-10-29 21:02:20 UTC
I think the patch only works around some unknown problem instead of addressing the real issue, but let's pass this on to the package maintainer.
Comment 6 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-10-29 21:15:18 UTC
Is this happening inside a chroot or inside a VM running Gentoo? The URL suggests these things mainly happen when /dev isn't mounted or udev isn't running.
Comment 7 Peter Alfredsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-10-29 21:22:23 UTC
Not lafilefixer, this one. Looks like something in your environment is screwed up.

Proposed patch to the lafilefixer script

That's the end of that patch, then.

No, this happened on my real system

also, udev is running and /dev is mounted
Comment 11 Jacobo Reveles 2009-10-31 20:08:17 UTC
I updated the system packages: emerge -u system
and now it works as expected, so looked like a problem with one of the system packages, probably baselayout or udev

This bug can be closed now,
Thanks
Comment 12 Bruce Wang 2010-05-13 01:10:10 UTC
I solved this problem by linking /proc/self/fd to /dev/fd:

ln -s /proc/self/fd /dev/fd

then the error gone.
