Description

We actually used /var/lib/iscsi before the update. The previous version would create /var/lib/iscsi for other apps and installers that did not make it. I can just add the code to the iscsi tools to do this again. I thought in some other BZ someone said I should remove that code, but other distros will probably still need it too.

Yeah - that was me. I think my main point was that the RPM should install and own the dir, not so much that the code should never create the dir. I think it's valid for it to require that the dir pre-exists, but it's unfortunate to make a change like that during RHEL5.

Yeah, understood. This is fixed in iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.865-0.2.el5. It was just built into brew. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. FWIW, it seems fine now with 6.2.0.865-0.4.el5 Thanks for testing. |
