It does not clean the locks at all (it explicitly re-uses old lock DIRs) Only if not found it does generate them as DIR=$(mktemp -d "/dev/shm/${PROG}_${USER}_XXXXXXXX") DIR="${DIR}/.cache/${PROG}" And from there on continue to use them, but those are actually just directories.
that is tmpfs: tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) Which implies that it is cleared on reboot (as it is only in memory). You'll need to outline more what the problem is to understand your problem. Furthermore the upstream project wasn't touched since 2013, not sure there is too much activity still. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1821807 Title: run-one lock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/run-one/+bug/1821807/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
