Description o.thyfronitis 2018-02-05 13:36:52 UTC
Created attachment 517870 [details]
outputs of `sudo eclean-kernel -n 3 --debug`, `eclean-kernel --list-kernels` and `emerge --info`

I ran `sudo eclean-kernel -n 3` after manually deleting some kernel files from /boot and got an "execv() arg 2 must contain only strings" error. I attach the outputs of `sudo eclean-kernel -n 3 --debug`, `eclean-kernel --list-kernels` and `emerge --info`.

I have the exact same issue locally. Simply cannot use eclean-kernel.

I'm sorry I've abandoned this project in favor of EK2 which I was never able to finish.  Apparently this was a wrong move, and I'll try to address the most important issues in the legacy version now.

This should be fixed in c10ce2708d28dcc6c1bbccd937832d01b3f8484c.  When I look through other reported issues, I'll make a new release including it.
