Package: fakeroot Version: 1.5.10 Severity: important
This test may look quite extrange but I have found this experimentaly in a hand made automatic build system. I open two consoles. I execute the following command in the first console in order to make the use of my CPU very high: $ while true; do true; done I execute the following command in the second console (everything in one command line): $ rm -f fakeroot.env device; fakeroot -s fakeroot.env mknod device c 1 2; fakeroot -i fakeroot.env ls -l device -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2007-03-30 16:35 device If I execute this command slowly and without the CPU consuming task it works properly: $ rm -f fakeroot.env device $ fakeroot -s fakeroot.env mknod device c 1 2 $ fakeroot -i fakeroot.env ls -l device crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 2 2007-03-30 16:36 device It may happen also without the CPU consuming task, but less often.
