kubuntu missing fam support for nfs

Asked by Dean Montgomery

Kubuntu's kde4.x appears to be missing FAM (gamin) support for NFS / (root) or /home.

When I update a file on the server the nfs kubuntu client does not see the change.

Backgroud:
Running 3200 diskless clients (kde3.5) - changing files on the server are reflected on the clients via gamin/fam. I've just started beta-testing Kubuntu's kde4 on the diskless workstations. I've run into the problem of not being able to update software on the server due to the diskless nfs clients not being able to "see" changes made on the server (e.g. /usr/share/applications/NEW_APP.desktop).

Here is more detailed thread on kde forum - it was suggested I ask Kubuntu if they've included libfam.so support.
