Description Darko SokoliÄ 2011-05-23 18:14:00 CEST

Description of problem:
iptables command, residing in /sbin where essential commands are, requires
library libip4tc.so.0 . That library is placed in /usr/lib, among non-esential
libraries. Therefore, on system where /usr is not mounted (yet), iptables
cannot be invoked. I believe that both libip4tc.so.0 and
libip4tc.so.0.0.0 shall be moved to /usr , what would make iptables usable
without the need to mount non-essential /usr filesystem.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0-1.4.10-3.mga1


How reproducible:
every time when filesystem /usr is not mounted


Steps to Reproduce:
1. setup machine to have /usr on separate filesystem
2. boot system to point where /usr is not mounted yet
3. try invoking iptables

Comment 2 Darko SokoliÄ 2011-06-14 12:21:51 CEST

Thanks,

I hope you have noticed a mistake I have made:
the essential library in question shall be moved to /lib, not to /usr as I have mistakenly typed.

Comment 3 Ahmad Samir 2011-06-14 18:32:54 CEST

Yes, I had moved them to /lib*/. :)
