I am finding this dmidecode error occurs at a similar time as when Bug #757382 occurs. In Fedora 16, dmidecode isn't installed by default. It could be that this results in the failure to finish forking (assumed failure) in Bug #75382. *** Bug 696702 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.

We should backport this patch to F16: commit e7dfa468f9de796430a4cc9594eb256109a517bf Author: Eric Blake <eblake> Date: Mon Dec 5 10:32:41 2011 -0700 spec: add dmidecode as prereq https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=754909 complains that because libvirt didn't require dmidecode, that the logs are noisy and virConnectGetSysinfo needlessly fails. Even 'virt-what' requires dmidecode, so it's not that onerous of a dependency. We may be able to drop this in the future when we move to parsing sysfs data, but for now, listing the dependency will help matters. * libvirt.spec.in (Requires): Sort Requires before BuildRequires. Add dmidecode. (In reply to comment #8) > Eric, > > Note I have been running with Daniel's original patch for about a week and no > lockups occur. I also meant to add that Daniel's patches for lockup are independently addressed in bug 757382. libvirt-0.9.6-4.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libvirt-0.9.6-4.fc16 Package libvirt-0.9.6-4.fc16: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 16 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing libvirt-0.9.6-4.fc16' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-17267/libvirt-0.9.6-4.fc16 then log in and leave karma (feedback). libvirt-0.9.6-4.fc16 has been pushed to the Fedora 16 stable repository.
