Package: atop Version: 2.2.6-4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
With the upgrade to atop 2.2.6 from 1.26-2, defaults file is being deprecated. Thing is, with defaults deprecated and the introduction of the atop.daily helper, there is no way of configuring a different interval (and other options) without modifying the helper. So, please consider either: - sourcing an optional /etc/defaults/atop file, by modifying atop.daily - modifying atop.service to source an /etc/defaults/atop and the helper to check for env variables - provide options to the helper. e.g. --interval=150 etc. I prefer the first, as it allows for a better transition. I could provide patches for any of the above, if you agree so. Thanks PS. Not sure if this should be a Debian or an upstream bug actually, as /etc/defaults is pretty Debian-specific. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (90, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages atop depends on: ii init-system-helpers 1.47 ii libc6 2.24-10 ii libncurses5 6.0+20161126-1 ii libtinfo5 6.0+20161126-1 ii lsb-base 9.20161125 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 Versions of packages atop recommends: ii cron [cron-daemon] 3.0pl1-128+b1 atop suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
