Hi Gerrit,
Please try 'apt-get install --reinstall runit', and check again whether
the git-daemon service is activated properly. If not, please post the
output of
You don't get the point - I don't want to have runit installed at all. Why
should another package be installed to do what the /etc/init.d/git-daemon
file and sysvinit package would already provide on their own? runit would
be superfluous.
Honestly, I don't see the need for the git-daemon-run package at all.
git-core should provide /etc/init.d/git-daemon, and have a
/etc/default/git-daemon file with some kind of flag to specify if the
daemon is actually run. Just like many other packages:
/etc/default/apache2:
# 0 = start on boot; 1 = don't start on boot
NO_START=0
/etc/default/apt-cacher
# set to 1 to start the daemon at boot time
AUTOSTART=1
/etc/default/bootlogd:
# Run bootlogd at startup ?
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=No
/etc/default/dbus
# Whether or not to run the dbus system daemon; set to 0 to disable.
ENABLED=1
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ egrep -i -c '(start)|(enable)' /etc/default/* | grep -v :0
/etc/default/acpid:2
/etc/default/apache2:2
/etc/default/apt-cacher:3
/etc/default/bootlogd:2
/etc/default/dbus:2
/etc/default/dbus-1:2
/etc/default/exim4:3
/etc/default/gdm:1
/etc/default/hotplug:2
/etc/default/lprng:2
/etc/default/mpd:2
/etc/default/pootle:2
/etc/default/rcS:2
/etc/default/rsync:5
/etc/default/slapd:5
/etc/default/util-vserver:5
And I don't see any apache2-run, mdc-run, dbus-run cvs-server, cvs-run
packages anywhere.
There is already a well-established way for handling daemons, which
although not perfect has no major holes and is *known* by administrators.
Why force such a change?
Regards,
Mark.
