Package: distcc Version: 3.1-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When upgrading the Debian packages the upgrade process typically remains stuck due to the distcc postinstall script: Traitement des actions différées (« triggers ») pour « distcc »... Updating symlinks in /usr/lib/distcc ... [ ok ] Starting Distributed Compiler Daemon: distccd. If I look at the process list I see: $ pstree -p -l [...] | |-su(9915)---bash(9993)---aptitude(10975)-+-dpkg(25942)---frontend(2880)---distcc.postinst(2905) | | `-{aptitude}(11034) [...] |-distccd(2935)-+-distccd(2953) | |-distccd(2959) | |-distccd(2960) | |-distccd(2961) | |-distccd(2964) | |-distccd(2977) | `-{distccd}(2952) [...] Or from 'ps aux': root 2880 0.0 0.4 68404 17344 pts/1 S+ 16:38 0:00 /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/info/distcc.postinst triggered /usr/lib/gcc root 2905 0.0 0.0 0 0 pts/1 Z+ 16:38 0:00 [distcc.postinst] <defunct> A workaround is to manually run '/etc/init.d/distcc restart' but that should not be needed. This happens on my two Debian machines, this one and a 32bit Debian machine. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages distcc depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.46 ii libavahi-client3 0.6.31-1 ii libavahi-common3 0.6.31-1 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libpopt0 1.16-7 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian7 ii netbase 5.0 distcc recommends no packages.
