This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Created attachment 978741 [details] strace -f on linphonecsh init call
the problem is still there in Fedora 21 for me, linphonec does not stay running after linphonecsh init call, and if I run linphonec manually, linphonecsh does not seem to be able to connect to it. I attached strace output for command: strace -o /tmp/log.txt -f linphonecsh init
ok I see what the problem is. for me linphonec is a wrapper shell script I wrote. running that using execve fails. I think linphonecsh should either avoid using PTH for binary lookup, or - if it trusts the path - use a call like "system" does, e.g. execl("/bin/sh", "sh". "-c", command, (char *) 0);
