Description of problem: prelink daily cron job fails since upgrade to 9 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): prelink-0.4.0-3.i386 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1.let cron.daily run 2. 3. Actual results: /etc/cron.daily/prelink: telinit: Unable to send message: Connection refused Expected results: prelink does it's think Additional info:
That's not prelink's fault. If you have upgraded to 9 from older Fedora without rebooting, then that upgrade swapped SysVinit with upstart for /sbin/init. The two implementations are incompatible, and there is no way to restart SysVinit into upstart init, other than reboot. The error you are getting is because upstart's /sbin/telinit isn't able to communicate to the currently running init prelink's request to reexec, if you run /sbin/telinit u by hand, you'll get the same error.
