Package: atop Version: 2.2.3-1~exp1 Severity: normal Dear Marc,
Thank you for packaging atop 2.2.3. Process accounting does not seem to work. I wonder why tough. atopacct is running, and it also seemed to setup process accounting: merkaba:/run> ls -l pacct_* -rw------- 1 root root 0 Aug 11 10:53 pacct_source pacct_shadow.d: insgesamt 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 11 10:53 0000000000.paf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7 Aug 11 10:53 current merkaba:/run> merkaba:~> ls -l /proc/3748/fd insgesamt 0 lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Aug 11 10:57 0 -> /run/pacct_source l-wx------ 1 root root 64 Aug 11 10:57 1 -> /run/pacct_shadow.d/0000000000.paf l-wx------ 1 root root 64 Aug 11 10:57 3 -> /run/pacct_shadow.d/current lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Aug 11 10:57 4 -> socket:[814532] lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Aug 11 10:57 5 -> socket:[814533] Yet the file that is supposed to contain the data, I think thats "0000000000.paf" does not grow.
