Package: kdump-tools Version: 1:1.6.8.2 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, Commit 38fe0c8f41fd (Support compressing the dumpfile) [1] changes the call to makedumpfile : - makedumpfile $MAKEDUMP_ARGS $vmcore_file "$KDUMP_CORETEMP" + makedumpfile $MAKEDUMP_ARGS $vmcore_file | compress > "$KDUMP_CORETEMP" This introduces a regression because makedumpfile is called with the wrong arguments and as a result instead of creating a real dumpfile it creates a file which contains an error message : # cat /var/crash/202103221444/dump.202103221444 Commandline parameter is invalid. Try `makedumpfile --help' for more information. makedumpfile Failed.
