1. tmpreaper is installed without any default configuration (in cron), maybe it should be included? 2. The example files provided in share/doc (from debian) doesn't work out of the box. In tmpreaper.conf, as /etc/default/rcS doesn't exist, there is an error at line 48: [: : integer expression expected I think we should install the cron.daily script and /etc/tmpreaper.conf (with the SHOWWARNING=true uncommented for security) by default, and correct /etc/tmpreaper.conf to remove reference to /etc/defaults/rcS. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Copy the demo config files /usr/share/doc/tmpreaper-1.6.6-r1/tmpreaper.conf.bz2 and /usr/share/doc/tmpreaper-1.6.6-r1/cron.daily.bz2 to /etc and /etc/cron.daily 2. Modify /etc/tmpreaper.conf to remove/comment SHOWWARNING=true 3. Wait for tmpreaper to be run by cron. Actual Results: /etc/tmpreaper.conf: line 48: [: : integer expression expected
Ali, I'm just going through a number of maintainer-needed bugs. You were the last one touchin the tmpreaper package. Any chance you'd be so nice to tackle this bug or even fill in the maintainer role?
