Package: secure-delete
Version: 3.1-4
Severity: normal
Using srm -r * on partition with many small files results in a too many
open files error. Tried increasing file-max with sysctl -w
fs.file-max=65534 but it has no effect suggesting a programming issue?
As a test tried wipe package on the same files and this does not have
a problem.
