I could reproduce the error after regenerating my config (see my
other mail about that). And yes, it comes from execve(). I could
do a simpler test, always reproducible:
francine:~> touch bin/tst
francine:~> cat bin/tst
cassis:~> cat tst.c
int main (void)
{ return 0; }
cassis:~> gcc -O3 tst.c -o tst
cassis:~> mv tst bin/
mv: overwrite ‘bin/tst’? y
At this point, I have to wait for 15 seconds for the "mv" to be
done: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=799838
After that:
francine:~> strace -f -o tst.out sh -c "exec $HOME/bin/tst"
sh: 1: exec: /home/vlefevre/bin/tst: File exists
zsh: exit 2 strace -f -o tst.out sh -c "exec $HOME/bin/tst"
francine:~[2]> cat tst.out
