[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#350218: initscripts: Bootclean doesn't clean all nested directories in /tmp

[Piotr Kaczuba]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.86.ds1-11
Severity: normal


When cleaning /tmp, bootclean doesn't remove all directories. The
problem seems to be, that find lists first a parent directory and then
the directories beneath. Removing the parent directory fails silently,
because it's not empty. Thus, after having run, bootclean leaves some
empty directories.
