[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1069350] Re: suspicious /.rpmdb root directory
Looks like DKMS (via kernel post-install hook, via dpkg, via apt-get) is
responsible for this:

The attached patch fixes DKMS to not call rpm to determine the
architecture since that is quite useless.

Afaik, this directory belongs to rpm or alien. Maybe it appears
because of a lack of environment variables (e.g. $HOME not set) in
particular situations.
As you can see in the listing, the directory is not used frequently,
but I'm not sure if it's save to delete it. Maybe the problem is
already solved in the current version of ubuntu (at last the time the
files were touched I was running Ubuntu 11.10), but I think it's
important to have this bug registered so other users can find it.
There is an active thread about it at ubuntuforums:

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1206900] Re: 046d:c52f [HP Elite 7100 Microtower PC] Kernel crash with Logitech K760 Bluetooth keyboard
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1205210 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1205210 ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1205210 Oops with Logitech Bluetooth keyboard; sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1206900 Title: 046d:c52f [HP Elite 7100 Microtower PC] Kernel crash with Logitech K760 Bluetooth keyboard Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have a Logitech K760 Bluetooth keyboard. This keyboard has three buttons that allow you to connect to three different machines via Bluetooth. I have button three mapped to my Ubuntu box. When I hit button one and then quickly hit button three, the kernel crashes. If I wait a long period of time, it does not crash. The logs (see end for full trace) seem to indicate that there is a problem with the kernel trying to create file that already exists: sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci:00/:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.7/2-1.7:1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:21' I assume this is happening because the kernel has yet to clean up after the disconnection before the device tries to reconnect. My current workaround is to wait a while before hitting button 3 when I accidentally hit button 1. It would be nice if I reduce the timeout before the kernel cleans up the after the device to shorten the period of time I have to wait. Here I have hit button 1 and waited a few seconds: Jul 31 07:25:01 LD-cowens kernel: [ 199.114124] power_supply hid-00:1f:20:3d:cf:09-battery: driver failed to report `capacity' property: -5 Jul 31 07:25:06 LD-cowens kernel: [ 204.105779] power_supply hid-00:1f:20:3d:cf:09-battery: driver failed to report `capacity' property: -5 Then I hit button 3: Jul 31 07:25:31 LD-cowens kernel: [ 229.279867] hid-generic 0005:046D:B316.0006: unknown main item tag 0x0 Jul 31 07:25:31 LD-cowens kernel: [ 229.293875] input: Logitech K760 as /devices/pci:00/:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.7/2-1.7:1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:21/input16 Jul 31 07:25:31 LD-cowens kernel: [ 229.294115] hid-generic 0005:046D:B316.0006: input,hidraw4: BLUETOOTH HID v1.1b Keyboard [Logitech K760] on 00:02:72:dd:e9:e1 Hit button 1 and wait a few seconds: Jul 31 07:25:47 LD-cowens kernel: [ 244.558409] power_supply hid-00:1f:20:3d:cf:09-battery: driver failed to report `capacity' property: -5 Jul 31 07:25:52 LD-cowens kernel: [ 249.550056] power_supply hid-00:1f:20:3d:cf:09-battery: driver failed to report `capacity' property: -5 Hit button 3: Jul 31 07:26:15 LD-cowens kernel: [ 272.731818] hid-generic 0005:046D:B316.0007: unknown main item tag 0x0 Jul 31 07:26:15 LD-cowens kernel: [ 272.770990] input: Logitech K760 as /devices/pci:00/:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.7/2-1.7:1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:21/input17 Jul 31 07:26:15 LD-cowens kernel: [ 272.771187] hid-generic 0005:046D:B316.0007: input,hidraw4: BLUETOOTH HID v1.1b Keyboard [Logitech K760] on 00:02:72:dd:e9:e1 Hit button 1 and then button 3 without waiting long: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1206900/+attachment/3759322/+files/crashlog --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.1 Architecture: i386 AudioDevicesInUse: USERPID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: cowens 1923 F pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: cowens 1923 F pulseaudio CRDA: Error: command ['iw', 'reg', 'get'] failed with exit code 1: nl80211 not found.
