[Bug 1362306] Re: failed to fstat previous diversions file: No such file or directory

Fri Sep 12 06:05:29 UTC 2014

This is most probably a sign of file system corruption/hard disk or
memory errors/etc. You didn't report this with apport, so we don't have
a "dmesg" output. If you still have this problem and can recreate it,
can you please attach the output of "dmesg" here? Thanks!
