Package: ipw3945d Version: 1.7.22-5 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Having updated to version 1.14.16.1 of dpkg running $ sudo /etc/init.d/ipw3945d start or $ sudo /etc/init.d/ipw3945d restart fails, giving the error: Starting ipw3945 regulatory daemon: ipw3945d failed! This appears to have been caused by a change in the input argument --chuid into start-stop-daemon (which is in the dpkg package) within ipw3945d. It no longer accepts ${DAEMON_OWNER} as being "Debian-ipw3945d:Debian-ipw3945d" and instead requires only "Debian-ipw3945d". Making this change in the definition of ${DAEMON_OWNER} (with suitable other alterations to where ${DAEMON_OWNER} is used in chown commands) fixes the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages ipw3945d depends on: ii adduser 3.105 add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-24 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip Versions of packages ipw3945d recommends: ii firmware-ipw3945 0.9 Binary firmware for Intel Wireless -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
