I can't reproduce it. :-( Could you install debuginfo package and run it in valgrind. Created attachment 140758 [details]
valgrind output
Valgrind output attached.
This has been happening for quite some time prior to FC6 - I had just hoped
that FC6 would fix it.
Created attachment 140759 [details]
GDB output, showing back trace and a couple of variable values. If there's anything else I can show, let me know
I need to reproduce it on same configuration as you have. Send me your logrotate configuration, please. #tar cvzf logConfig.tgz /etc/logrotate.d /etc/logrotate.conf Created attachment 140764 [details]
logrotate config files
Per request, here are the config files
I still can't reproduce it. Send me #ll -R /var/log/ output. Created attachment 140775 [details]
ll -l /var/log output
Per request, var log output
I can't reproduce it. Does it happend on clean FC6 installation? I'm not sure I understand - do you mean "A clean *update* from the FC6 release disk onto the machine with the other files intact", or do you really mean "a clean install from zero, preserving no data"? If the latter, then I doubt very much it is happening since this bug would be being flooded with "Me Too"'s. I know *something* is screwy with this machine, as my other FC6 machine is not showing this symptom - I just am at a loss to determine what would have gone wrong. I'll see if I can step through with the debugger and see where things go wrong. I meant clean installation from zero. Somehow the executable was corrupted, and that fact was not being detected. |
