Package: schroot Version: 1.0.5-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Sometimes a program crashes and leave the schroot session open for some reson and at the next boot a lot of bind mounts are done while recovering lost sessions. I find much useful to end such sessions, so I wrote a patch that lets the user decide what she wnat to do by adding a configuration option in /etc/default/schroot. Probably we could do even better and separate behaviour depending on session type but the current recover/end patch is enough for me (and does not change anything for users that don't need it). Patch attached.

schroot
Description: application/shellscript
# This is a configuration file for /etc/init.d/schroot; it allows you to
# perform common modifications to the behavior of schroot initialization
# without editing the init script (and thus getting prompted by dpkg on
# upgrades.) Note that the defaults defined here are not used when
# invoking the schroot command; to configure schroot behaviour have a
# look at /etc/schroot/* and the schroot manual page ("man schroot".)
# What do we want to do with "orphan" sessions? Recover them (leave
# empty or set to "recover") or just end them (set to "end")?
