Description Bastien Nocera 2006-08-29 09:55:12 UTC
sysreport-1.3.15-5
bind-9.2.4-16.EL4
bind-chroot-9.2.4-16.EL4
caching-nameserver-7.3-3

1. Install sysreport as well as a chroot'ed caching nameserver
2. Start named
3. Check that /var/named/chroot/proc is mounted
4. Launch a sysreport

Getting information from /var/named will hang, as sysreport tries to copy data
from /var/named/chroot/proc (kmsg most likely).

The attached patch makes sysreport avoid trying to copy the chroot'ed proc/
altogether, as it would duplicate information from the root /proc.
