I just recently installed a new version of f-spot and I found to my dismay
that the following error appears when I try to run it:
Unhandled Exception: System.ApplicationException: Error setting process name: 0
in <0x0008a> FSpot.Driver:SetProcessName (System.String name)
in <0x00090> FSpot.Driver:Main (System.String[] args)
I think this is because I'm using a kind of old kernel version, but shouldn't
it be a little more graceful about this error?
public static void SetProcessName(string name)
{
try {
if(prctl(15 /* PR_SET_NAME */, name,
0, 0, 0) != 0) {
throw new ApplicationException("Error setting process
name: " +
Mono.Unix.Native.Stdlib.GetLastError());
}
} catch (DllNotFoundException de) {
/* noop */
}
}
As far as I know, PR_SET_NAME was added at some point after 2.6.5 (which
I am presently using... don't ask why :-)).
