Package: ngircd Version: 0.10.0-2 Severity: normal Having some trouble configuring a link I was wondering why ngircd does not write any logging information. Looking I found usage of syslog is explicitely disabled in debian/rules. Is there any sense doing this?
After a recompile I found a few error messages in the syslog, the most important one is due to a typo in the shipped ngircd.conf: | PidFile /var/run/ngircd/ngircd.pid (an "=" is missing) I'd suggest to drop the pidfile handling in the start-stop-daemon invokation: | start) | echo -n "Starting Next generation IRC server: " | start-stop-daemon --start --chuid irc:irc \ | --exec /usr/sbin/ngircd | echo "ngircd." works for me.
