New OpenVZ bug tracker

We are pleased to announce the new OpenVZ bug tracker.

After using Bugzilla for a decade, we now decided to switch to Atlassian Jira as our main bug tracker. It will be more convenient for OpenVZ users and allow the development team to share more information with the OpenVZ community.

Atlassian Stash, used as Web frontend to OpenVZ Git, shares the database of registered users with Atlassian Jira. So if you already have an account in Stash you will not need to create another in the new bug tracker, as all Bugzilla users have been imported to Jira. You will, however, need to reset your password.

back to 2006, or openvz bug #60

Some software bugs, while being simple and stupid, have an interesting and long lasting life. Here is the story of such a very simple bug with a lifespan of about 5 years (or more? I don't know when it was introduced). The bug doesn't worth looking at otherwise, so I'll try to be short, and more info is available from the links. OK,

back in 2006 I whined about a bug in sysvinit we found. Until today I thought is was never fixed upstream.

This night I found out that it's actually fixed in sysvinit (2.87dsf), released in Jul 2009, according to its changelog:

 * Adjust init to terminate argv0 with one 0 rather than two so that
    process name can be one character longer.  Patch by Kir Kolyshkin.

Unfortunately it wrongly contributes me as a patch author. The actual author is Dmitry Mishin, as seen in OpenVZ bug #60, I just submitted it.
