Description Scott M. Likens 2007-01-07 01:39:46 UTC
After updating to coreutils to coreutils-6.7-r1, /bin/nice changed to /usr/bin/nice

/etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis calls nice such as 
exec bin/nice /usr/sbin/makewhatis -u

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Update to coreutils 6.7-r1
2.Run /etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis
3.Read your email on root seeing the failure.

Actual Results:  
/etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis: line 5: /bin/nice: No such file or directory
/etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis: line 5: exec: /bin/nice: cannot execute: No such file or directory


Expected Results:  
No errors, it should complete.

Of course, change /bin to /usr/bin/nice

Simple fix, just annoying.
