1 All,
2
3 please take a look at the following issue.
4
5 https://github.com/openrc/openrc/issues/195
6
7 The first part of the fix is committed to master as shown on the issue;
8 checkpath should *never* follow symbolic links when changing ownership,
9 so I have moved to the lchown call instead of chown.
10
11 However, I'm not sure how to deal with the hard link issue in a way that
12 will not break service scripts.
13
14 If anyone has any suggestions for this, let me know.
15
16 Thanks,
17
18 William
