Hello, Recently with one of my upgrades Nautils stopped working.
The reason? It requires gconfd to be running, but gconfd kept crashing. The reason gconfd keeps crashing? According to strace, it tries to create a lock file under $HOME/.gconfd/locks/. However, on this system /home is NFS mounted with file locking disabled, hence the file locking operation fails. This in turn causes gconfd to fail, which in turn causes Nautils to fail. Is it really required to have file locks under $HOME? Wouldn't, say /tmp be more appropriate? -- Brian May <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
