I'd like to fix #781886 "qcontrol failure to start on boot sometimes (jessie,
systemd?)" in Jessie.
The issue is that when running in LSB compat mode the devices may not have been
created before the initscript runs. This isn't noticed under sysvinit because
there is an implicit (or perhaps explicit) udev settle somewhere earlier on.
However the proper fix (enabling full systemd support) is IMHO too intrusive
for a stable update (see below for the full patch in case you disagree). So
instead I would like to upload a workaround:
diff --git a/debian/qcontrol.qcontrold.init b/debian/qcontrol.qcontrold.init
index ccbcb22..55bd5a1 100644
--- a/debian/qcontrol.qcontrold.init
+++ b/debian/qcontrol.qcontrold.init

+
log_daemon_msg "Starting qcontrol daemon" "qcontrol"
if start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON -- -d; then
log_end_msg 0
I'm thinking that the best way to approach this would be to upload the
workaround to Sid and wait for it to propagate to Stretch, so it gets some
degree of real world testing and then upload the workaround upload to Jessie-pu
and carry on with the proper fix in Sid+Stretch (and probably jessie-backports).
How does that sound?
Cheers,
Ian.
The full/proper fix (WIP) for Stretch, FYI (note that the build will autodetect
libsystemd-daemon-dev and enable some runtime support too):
