Description Tom London 2011-09-19 13:49:47 UTC

Description of problem:
I'm seeing the following on fresh boots:

[root@tlondon ~]# dmesg | grep stderr
[   16.928522] fedora-readonly[440]: /etc/init.d/functions: line 58: /dev/stderr: No such device or address
[   17.659543] fedora-storage-init[491]: /etc/init.d/functions: line 58: /dev/stderr: No such device or address
[   22.220213] fedora-storage-init[834]: /etc/init.d/functions: line 58: /dev/stderr: No such device or address
[   23.909572] sshd-keygen[870]: /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions: line 58: /dev/stderr: No such device or address
[root@tlondon ~]# 

[root@tlondon init.d]# ls -l /dev/stderr
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Sep 19 06:16 /dev/stderr -> /proc/self/fd/2
[root@tlondon init.d]# ls -lZ /dev/stderr
lrwxrwxrwx. root root system_u:object_r:device_t:s0    /dev/stderr -> /proc/self/fd/2
[root@tlondon init.d]# 

Appears to have started around 10 September:

/var/log/messages-20110911:Sep 10 18:11:22 tlondon NetworkManager[891]: /etc/init.d/functions: line 58: /dev/stderr: No such device or address
/var/log/messages-20110911:Sep 10 18:11:26 tlondon NetworkManager[891]: /etc/init.d/functions: line 58: /dev/stderr: No such device or address
/var/log/messages-20110911:Sep 10 18:11:27 tlondon dbus-daemon[946]: /etc/init.d/functions: line 58: /dev/stderr: No such device or address

Not sure its relevant, but checking, I did update glibc roughtly near then:

glibc-2.14.90-8.x86_64


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-legacy-9.32-1.fc17.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every boot
