Package: gkrellm
Version: 2.2.7-5
Severity: minor
Currently the lock is stored in the home dir of the user. This imposes
the problem that on a crash of the computer the lock file remains
there. So when trying to start gkrellm after that, gkrellm refuses to
start, because it finds a lockfile (if only one instance is allowed).
I think it would be better to put lockfiles in /var/lock, since this
directory is cleaned on booting.
To avoid complications, maybe the name of the user can be added to the
name of the lock file, for example:
lock_myuser_192.168.10.10:0.0
Regards
Marco
