Hi, thanks for reporting this bug. Assigned to the package maintainer.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 2 is nearing its end of life. Approximately one month from now Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 2. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 2 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- The Mageia Bugsquad
As a pert i only can say one thing, and that is: What a pity. I hope i didn't steal too much time. Thanks. :-)
Well, it's hard to fix a bug we fail to reproduce. Can you still reproduce it? If yes: can you alter the /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.18.1/MDK/Common/File.pm file? First make a backup of it. Then as root, add the following line at line 369: require MDK::Common::Various; warn ">> HERE ($_[0]):\n" . MDK::Common::Various::backtrace() . "\n"; You must put it just after this line: sub expand_symlinks { Then try to run drakboot again from a terminal and report back what it prints. Also does it still happen after upgrading to mga3?

What i wrote was: "As a pert" [instead of "ex-pert"] "i only can say one thing, and that is: What a pity. I hope i didn't steal too much time. Thanks. :-)" What i meant was: I'm not a prof, i'm a "layman", and also, sorry, i'm not using Mageia anymore: i hate all these updates; e.g. under Linux Mint (15 (Olivia)) now drakboot is not installable anymore, so i can't find out what i meant, would like to have a nice "normal" bootmanager again compatible with menu.lst. ;-((
Mageia 2 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on ''22 November''. Mageia 2 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia and reopen this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. -- The Mageia Bugsquad
