Description of problem: In my checks for broken symlinks, /etc/httpd/state: broken symbolic link to ../../var/lib/httpd/state httpd-2.4.39-2.fc29.x86_64 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): httpd-2.4.39-2.fc29.x86_64 How reproducible: On recent update of above package on a system with httpd not running but installed. Steps to Reproduce: 1. file /etc/httpd/state 2. 3. Actual results: /etc/httpd/state: broken symbolic link to ../../var/lib/httpd/state Expected results: No broken symlink Additional info: If the symlink must be created (broken) by the installation of httpd then the file ../../var/lib/httpd/state needs to also be created perhaps containing the text "Virgin Installation of httpd - this file will eventually contain the status of the running server if it's ever turned on" but should never be the target of a broken symlink.
Is it actually broken or is it just not readable to non-root users? sudo file /etc/httpd/state
It is broken.
Still broken.
Package: httpd-2.4.39-3.fc31
Thanks - but that's "a long way off" (ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_version_history) & will annoy me every day till then, sadly, as it will be reported as a broken link that needs attention. But at least it is a real bug that wasn't just a "user issue"? What does the target contain in httpd-2.4.39-3.fc31 so I can create it appropriately now?
If you are a little bit patient, we'll get this to f29 as well. I've switched the target to /var/lib/httpd.
