Description Mamoru TASAKA 2011-10-22 07:56:38 UTC

Description of problem:
When using multi-user.target (in the old term, "runlevel 3"), the scriptlets of zeitgeist on upgrade fails like:

Scriptlet output:
   1 [DEBUG - singleton] Checking for another running instance...
   2 Traceback (most recent call last):

Comment 1 Mamoru TASAKA 2011-10-22 08:05:52 UTC

By the way, while I don't know well about zeitgeist well, does "zeitgeist-daemon --replace" *on root* really work when zeitgeist-daemon runs as *non-root user*, and even when multiple uses are logged in?

Comment 2 Mamoru TASAKA 2011-10-22 09:06:23 UTC

Well, actually I tried "zeitgeist-daemon --replace", and now ps auwwx shows:

$ ps auwwx | grep [z]eitgeist
tasaka1   3615  0.0  1.4  53840 11140 ?        Sl   16:23   0:00 zeitgeist-datahub
tasaka1   3628  0.0  0.8  23612  6512 ?        S    16:23   0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/zeitgeist-daemon
root     12307  0.3  1.5  23280 11728 pts/1    S+   18:02   0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr//bin/zeitgeist-daemon --replace
root     12325  0.0  0.4  43260  3628 pts/1    Sl+  18:02   0:00 zeitgeist-datahub

So another process of zeitgeist is created and now running, which I think is not the expected behavior.

Comment 3 Mamoru TASAKA 2011-10-22 09:19:53 UTC

Also, when logged in GNOME session and I try "zeitgeist-daemon --replace" on uxterm, it never "returns" - i.e. it seems that this command needs running as background process.

Anyway I don't think adding this scriptlets is a good idea because zeitgeist daemon is running not as root but as normal user.
