Description Victoriano Giralt 2005-05-31 22:20:08 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050416 Fedora/1.0.3-1.3.1 Firefox/1.0.3

Description of problem:
GFS install all userland utilities, properly, in /sbin, which facilitates making a SSI, including using a GFS root filesystem, except that lock_gulmd is dynamically linked against /usr/lib/libwrap.so.0. Thhis requires a extrange contraption in case /usr will be located (as usual) in a differente partition, that, in case of SSI could also  be stored in GFS, if it were not for this dependecy, that creates a chicken and egg situation.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
GFS-6.0.2-26

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install GFS
2.ldd /sbin/lock_gulmd

  

Actual Results:  libwrap.so.0 => /usr/lib/libwrap.so.0 (0x0059e000)
Thus preventing a smooth transition to a single system image

Expected Results:  Either lock_gulmd should not be linked against libwrap, libwrap should be statically linked into lock_gulmd or libwrap should be insalled to /lib (least desirable IMO)

Comment 1 michael conrad tadpol tilstra 2005-06-01 15:11:56 UTC
the calls to libwrap have been in a dead code path for a couple releases now, so
there isn't really any sense in keeping it.  So removed libwrab from gulm.

Comment 2 Lon Hohberger 2009-12-22 20:39:10 UTC
Cleanup.

This bugzilla should be resolved with the current packages from RHN for Red Hat Global File System for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.

GFS-6.0.2.36-9
