--- Begin Message ---Package: cron-apt Version: 0.4.5 Severity: minor Hi, I am running cron-apt on an hourly basis. This might lead to the following situation: Prerequisite: One of the apt servers is down causing apt-get update to take a _loooong_ time. nn:00 cron-apt is started by cron, sleep time 3540 seconds nn:59 apt-get update starts, stalls due to the apt server being down nn+1:00 cron-apt is started by cron, sleep time 120 seconds nn+1:02 apt-get update starts, reports "can't obtain apt lock" due to the still running apt from the last round This happens surprisingly often and increases the number of e-mails generated since the "can't obtain apt lock" error message completely messes up diff handling. cron-apt should be changed to do the following sleep take out a lock check if lock successful if lock successful, continue if lock unsuccessful, terminate with a log message, but not messing up the diffs Greetings Marc -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-zgsrv Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages cron-apt depends on: ii apt 0.6.43.3 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii debianutils 2.15.3 Miscellaneous utilities specific t Versions of packages cron-apt recommends: ii liblockfile1 1.06.1 NFS-safe locking library, includes ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20050715cvs-1 A simple mail user agent -- no debconf information
