For instance, I could want to run a static binary foo as: prlimit --nofile 1:1 /usr/local/bin/foo But I won't be able to do prlimit --nofile 1:1 nice /usr/local/bin/foo since nice wouldn't be able to open libc. In this case nice can be called with prlimit as parameter, but you will end up with some options provided by different binaries and which are incompatible. We probably can't avoid it, so go ahead with it. Make sure all these tools have their man pages properly interlinked, though. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
