Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: inotify-tools
Using inotifywait waiting for a lock-file will wait for ever.
Window one:
$ inotifywait -e delete_self /tmp/foo
Setting up watches.
Watches established.
Window two:
aw@server1:~$ touch /tmp/foo # has to be done before starting inotifywait in
window one
aw@server1:~$ rm /tmp/foo
(nothing happens, inotify will hang for ever)
=====
The same thing using event delete:
aw@server1:/tmp$ inotifywait -e delete /tmp
Setting up watches.
Watches established.
/tmp/ DELETE foo
The event fires
