Package: cpuset Version: 1.5.6-4 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, I was looking into setting up a cset shield in order to move kernel threads off of an isolated CPU when I ran into this: ``` $ sudo cset shield -v cset: **> [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/cpusets//cpus' $ sudo cset shield -c 1-3 cset: **> [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/cpusets//cpus' ``` None of the invocations I have tried have said anyhting different. The reason for is (I think) described here: https://code.google.com/p/cpuset/issues/detail?id=10 The upstream bug is several years old, which is worrying. I although this is not directly a debian related issue, I am filiing in case it is possible for the Debian team to locally patch. As it stands cset is not functional on Debian 8.
