Dear Maintainer,
When a job is running longer than CHECK_INTERVAL (defined in atd.c, currently
3600 seconds),
and run_file() is called (e.g. a second job is submitted after a bit more
than an hour) it will be removed from ATJOB_DIR and atq no longer reports this
job.
However, the job will happily finish. Yet, this is pretty confusing.
This is caused in atd.c inside an if-clause where a comment contains
a "FIXME". From my understanding, this if-clause can be removed alltogether
because the file is more than just a lockfile. It serves as
documentation for atq. Furthermore, this script-file will be removed
upon job completion.
However, maybe I am missing some circumstances where it is necessary to
remove this file at this point.
To reproduce, send this to at:
echo -n start
date
sleep 7000
echo -n end
date
end after one hour, submit something else. The first job will be gone,
but ps ax can still see the sleep and eventually you will get mail.
I found this on a Ubuntu system, but I use a Debian system to report
the bug.
