Bug 302470 – Please stabilize app-misc/lockfile-progs

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) 2010-01-27 17:05:01 UTC]

- in portage since 18 Dec 2009 (new package)
- small
- no reported bugs
- probably not widely tested in Gentoo

[Comment 1 Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) 2010-01-27 17:12:54 UTC]

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.

[Comment 3 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2010-02-05 18:06:32 UTC]

x86 stable, thanks Andreas for testing

[Comment 4 Thomas Beierlein 2010-02-06 09:49:46 UTC]

Install and works fine on stable amd64 chroot too. No chance to test on NFS.

[Comment 5 Thomas Beierlein 2010-02-06 09:54:35 UTC]

Re comment #4: Test was with old liblockfile-1.06-r2. But just retested with unstable 1-08. Same good results here.

[Comment 6 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) 2010-02-06 11:40:18 UTC]

Stable on amd64

all arches done
