This debdiff makes apport use /var/lock/apport as a lockfile instead. It also makes it exit with code 1 in case the lockfile could not get created (bug 147237).
I've also added a "/bin/rm -f /var/lock/apport" to the init script, in case apport gets restarted. In fact, the lockfile would not have to be moved to /var/lock: deleting it in the init script's "start" action would be enough. But it seems like having lockfiles in /var/lock sounds reasonable. ** Attachment added: "debdiff for Gutsy" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10012861/apport_0.99.dsc.diff -- stale lock prevents apport runs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137567 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
