Hello Serafeim, As far as I understand, this is a warning, not an anormal termination. Yes, we could check the return value of open, but it this instance I feel that the warning is legitimate. For example, if the user set up a cron job that automatically update their system, it can alert them that there is a conflict. Please note that this bug was also reported as #555790. I am still not quite sure how to address it.
