I just tried to reproduce it with a stage3-amd64-2007.0, and I can't. The only |
| 35 |
reason is that there is a .keep file in /root, which was put there by |
| 36 |
baselayout's mkdirs.sh script. Unless something has changed with baselayout in |
| 37 |
the tree since the 2007.0 snapshot, your problem lies elsewhere. Looking at the |
| 38 |
current stable in the tree (1.12.9-r2), it still does 'kdir /root' |
| 39 |
unconditionally. Are you using baselayout-2 or something? |
