Package: initscripts
Version: 2.88dsf-29
Followup-For: Bug #683103
Hi,
I've just been hit by this bug in a schroot.
The host has initscripts 2.88dsf-28 installed.
When upgrading my sid schroot, I got the error:
mkdir: cannot create directory `/run/shm': File exists
dpkg: error processing initscripts (--configure):
Looking at the situation on this system, I see:
atsina:/users/huron/danjean# mountpoint /dev
/dev is a mountpoint
atsina:/users/huron/danjean# mountpoint /dev/shm
mountpoint: /dev/shm: not a directory
atsina:/users/huron/danjean# ls -ld /dev/shm /run/shm
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Jul 6 18:58 /dev/shm -> /run/shm
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 May 22 2011 /run/shm -> /dev/shm
I do not know from where the circular symlink come from.
The schroot worked well (up-to-date) before I go to holidays, 3 weeks ago.
I fix my problem in the schroot by using the following commands:
rm /dev/shm
mkdir /dev/shm
dpkg --pending --configure
Regards,
Vincent
