Now that I upgraded to F-10 on my main machine, I'm getting root email
from cron every time my tar-based backup runs.

    /etc/cron.hourly/ZZZdo-backup:

    File descriptor 5 left open
    File descriptor 5 left open

This may be related to LVM.  One of the steps of the homegrown backup
process is to make an LVM snapshot partition and back that up instead
of the live filesystem.

Are other folks seeing this?  Is anyone else using snapshots?  (They
are pretty cool!)
