Description Chris Schanzle 2022-06-20 14:33:01 UTC

Description of problem:
/usr/libexec/eatmydata.sh points to /usr/lib/libeatmydata rather than /usr/lib64 

$ eatmydata sleep 1
eatmydata error: could not find eatmydata library /usr/lib/libeatmydata.so


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
eatmydata-130-3.fc35.noarch


I built the rpm myself and the Fedora build logs[1] for the x86_64 version do set eatmydata.sh correctly.  Perhaps related is the eatmydata package is a .noarch, I'm guessing the package was presumed identical to the 32-bit version and that's just what got shipped in the x86_64 repo.

Thus, it seems the core issue is eatmydata should not be a .noarch since it has architecture-specific paths in its files.

PS - Thanks to Stewart for making this an official fedora package.  I am a regular eatmydata user and have used my own libeatmydata rpm for 10-15 years. It's nice to have it easily installable for new Fedora systems.  Noticed this after a nightly 'dnf upgrade' broke the next night's "eatmydata dnf upgrade"!  :-)

Comment 1 Chris Schanzle 2022-06-26 23:01:24 UTC

Quick fix until an updated package is available:

sudo sed -i.bak 's#/usr/lib/libeatmydata#/usr/lib64/libeatmydata#'  /usr/libexec/eatmydata.sh
