Description Nathan G. Grennan 2004-08-20 21:38:41 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)

Description of problem:
The kernel-2.6.8-1.521 announcement mentions setarch -L <application>,
but setarch-1.4-1 doesn't include the -L option. Neither does
setarch-1.4-2 in rawhide. I found
http://people.redhat.com/mingo/nx-patches/setarch-1.4-3.tar.gz and
compile it as an rpm. It does include -L, and seems to work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
setarch-1.4-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. setarch -L i386 /bin/true
    

Actual Results:  Don't know how to set arch to -L

Expected Results:  Program runs

Yea well, it doesn't help when the setarch maintainer is the last one
to find out about these changes.... *gripe* :)

Comment 2 Pekka Pietikäinen 2004-08-31 18:13:59 UTC
Cool, someone already filed a bug ;). Please update (at least
rawhide), otherwise people won't be able to run wine or use mplayer
with win32 codecs...

Comment 3 Jindrich Novy 2004-10-12 12:08:39 UTC
This should be fixed in setarch-1.5-1 I built rawhide today. Please
use personality options like: setarch i386 -L /bin/true. For details
see man 8 setarch.

cheers,
Jindrich
