Description Pablo Rodríguez 2014-08-23 15:35:37 UTC
I would like to be able to use beep after complilation ends, such as in:

    rpmbuild --rebuild --clean calibre-2.0.0-1.fc21.src.rpm && beep

But the problem is that beep only works for root, since standard users have this error message:

    $ beep
    Could not open /dev/tty0 or /dev/vc/0 for writing
    open: No such file or directory

Is there no way to fix this in the program itself? Should I report the issue upstream?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.
Changing version to '22'.

Good point. I have no idea how to address this, though.

I would like to avoid setuid root for the beep binary.

Comment 3 Hans Ulrich Niedermann 2016-05-31 17:16:45 UTC
Still an issue in F24.
