Hmm, that's due to vorlon's recent change, I think. Is this inside
a chroot? If so, it's this logic failing:
# Symlink /dev/shm from /run/shm
# Note that it's really /var/run/shm
if mountpoint -q /dev && mountpoint -q /dev/shm; then
compat_link /dev/shm /run/shm
else
[ -d /run/shm ] || mkdir -p /run/shm
mountpoint -q /dev || compat_link /run/shm /dev/shm
fi
What is the output of
% ls -ld /dev /dev/shm /run /run/shm
on this system?
Thanks,
Roger
