Hi, c09c4741695b52017a6126fd77a9f9fcccd468bc and the following 5 commits show how to tests packages which need a (certain) database running, so this has (partly) been done now:
1ca8406 p.conf.*: enable --allow-database b1d5523 upgrade mysql/postgresql separately 747e9cd new script: pre_install_database-server 25a30e3 detect_piuparts_issues: failures to start a database server 2f24a32 p: relax the check for running processes for --allow-database c09c474 p: new option --allow-database The general usecase however is not possible yet, maybe with --enable- daemon=$damon-script (where $daemonscript is one of mysql, postgresqld or postgresql-8.3 in that patch) or maybe as --no-check-for-running-processes, not sure. I was about to close this bug (as the most pressing use case, enable data bases, is covered), and then decided to go to bed now and to look again tomorrow. cheers, Holger
