Description Abby Ricart 2009-07-15 18:58:57 UTC
There are utilities (ccs-auditd and ccs-queryd) that are a part of this latest version of ccs-tools that don't work with the stock 2.6.30 kernel. It seems the kernel doesn't create the necessary files (grant_log and reject_log) for these utilities to interface with.

The URL points to a similar bug report for Debian. It seems this issue has been fixed upstream through a minor revision (1.6.8-20090623-1) and the fix implemented by Debian. Gentoo may be able to benefit from this supposed fix as well.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install ccs-tools.
2. Attempt to run ccs-queryd. 
3. It will respond with a "You can't run this utility for this kernel." error.

Actual Results:  
An error was produced by the utility.

Expected Results:  
The utility should run and not immediately stop out with an error.

After looking through the diff file referenced by the Debian bug report, I was unable to pinpoint exactly where the fix was implemented. Maybe someone else will have better luck since upstream is indeed marking this as fixed.
