Description Lennart Poettering 2011-04-08 02:37:18 UTC
The kernel mandated place to mount cgroup file systems nowadays is /sys/fs/cgroup. The libcgroup package still includes /cgroup as a directory for that. Would be cool to drop that directory from the pkg. In order to ensure that possible existing setups aren't broken it might make sense to simply %ghost the dir instead of removing it entirelyh. That way it still will be part of the package but not created by RPM at installation.

robatino,

since you're still seeing the directory being created after the installation of the package, would you please try to find out which process creates it?:

yum remove libcgroup
rm -rf /cgroup
auditctl -w /cgroup -p rwa -k cgroup
yum install libcgroup
ausearch -k cgroup
