Hello,
I wanted to install recent coreutils (in case it might solve some
strange things with latest urpmi have weird option for cp when doing
urpmi.update -a), but to do that I needed to upgrade makedev. When I
urpmi it (or rpm the cache), it gets stuck in the "preparing" stage,
taking 100 % cpu. I tried to strace it, and it seems to be looping: I
get a lot of:
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/ida", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/dev/cciss", 0xbfffe060) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Am I doing something wrong ? Should I not try to install makedev ? Or is
this a bug ?
Thanks,
Alan Schmitt
