This bug occurs on a readlink() of /proc/self/exe - the kernel implements readlink() of /proc/pid/exe by getting the file from the first executable VMA. The path to the file is reconstructed and returned as the result. This does not identify the correct path on stackable file systems, such as unionfs, hence it's not a unionfs bug per se.
A patch for this does exist to fix the correct handling of /proc/self/exe, namely http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm- commits&m=120141116911711 however it is fairly intrusive - it modifies some of the more critical parts of the kernel and I believe it is not yet currently upstream, hence it's far too much of a risk to patch a stable release of Hardy and keep the kernel maintainable over the hardy LTS lifetime. -- /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/java: error while loading shared libraries: libjli.so: cannot openshared object file: No such file or directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224110 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
