Package: raidtools2
Version: 1.00.3-11
Severity: normal

The nightly cron.daily gives this error:

/etc/cron.daily/raidtools2:
cat: /etc/raidtab: No such file or directory

which is caused by the line:
RAIDDEV=`cat /etc/raidtab | grep raiddev | awk '{print $2}'`

I don't happen to be using RAID at the moment, so there is no
raidtab. A line like:

[ -r /etc/raidtab ] || exit 0

before the check above should fix it.

Not depending on /etc/raidtab at all would be better.
Even if one runs raids, one doesn't neccesarily need
to have an /etc/raidtab nor does it need to be complete
or in-sync.

Parsing /proc/mdstat to find raids would be more
reliable.


just my 2 cents,
