Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.1-5 Severity: important When compiling fam with this version of libc, no rt-signal will be sent when the contents of a monitored directory changes.
fcntl(fd, F_SETSIG, SIGRTMIN) sets the signal to 32. All kernel calls as shown by strace seem to be ok, but no signal is delivered afterwards (not even SIGIO instead of a rt-signal). If the signal number is changed to SIGRTMIN+1 or higher, everthing works. Installed kernel package is kernel-image-2.4.19-686-smp. This is rather mysterious, but reproducable on my system. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux pluto 2.4.19-686-smp #1 SMP Sun Oct 6 19:14:41 EST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=de_DE, LC_CTYPE=de_DE Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libdb1-compat 2.1.3-4 The Berkeley database routines [gl -- no debconf information
