Re: [Libguestfs] [PATCH] appliance: Make sure /tmp and /var/tmp are real directories.

Currently if /tmp (on the host) is a symlink, then the symlink is copied into the appliance, probably pointing to a non-existent directory, and everything goes downhill from there. Avoid this by making sure that /tmp and /var/tmp are real directories. --- appliance/init | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/appliance/init b/appliance/init index 3c5ef1b..3973f18 100755 --- a/appliance/init +++ b/appliance/init @@ -10,6 +10,11 @@ RUNLEVEL=S PREVLEVEL=N export RUNLEVEL PREVLEVEL +# Make sure /tmp /var/tmp are real directories, not symlinks. +rm -f /tmp /var/tmp +mkdir /tmp /var/tmp +chmod 1777 /tmp /var/tmp
