Package: libc6
Version: 2.9-6
Severity: normal
Since this morning's libc6 upgrade to 2.9.6, s-s-d tries to chroot to "'<path>'" (instead of "<path>", adding extra simple quotes to <path>.
/sbin/start-stop-daemon: Unable to chdir() to '<caller process's cwd>' (No such file or directory)
The above occurs when calling initscripts (invoke-rc.d or /etc/init.d/xxx)
Not too sure this is a glibc bug...
Here's strace excerpt :
7685 chdir("'/home/people/gougou'") = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
7685 write(2, "/sbin/start-stop-daemon: ", 25) = 25
7685 write(2, "Unable to chdir() to '/home/peop"..., 42) = 42
7685 write(2, " (No such file or directory)\n", 29) = 29
Took me time to figure about the extra simple quotes.
Tried to force locale to freshly generated en_GB, no luck...
Thanks
G
