Package: tspc
Version: 2.1.1-8
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

tspc is started with ifupdown, pppd, etc. There should be a setting in
/etc/default/tspc which when set to false, would disable tspc completely.

It doesn't work well with wpasupplicant in roaming mode:

xav...@ex5620 /u/l/g/bin> sudo ifup wlan0
Restarting IPv6 tunnel: tspc
All transports failed, quitting

Error is 2: SOCKET_ERROR
TSP session done
 failed!

because it takes a few seconds to associate with the access point and
get the DHCP lease from the server.

So I would prefer a way to start it manually (or with dhclient-exit-hooks)

The best of the best would be to be able to choose the starting method :

0. off (nerver starts except if /usr/sbin/tspc is called directly)
1. init on startup
2. ifupdown (and/or pppd)
3. dhclient
4. manual only (invoke-rc.d)

The last part is more a wishlist, but I tagged the bug normal since it
also fails to start in some situations.

thanks

Xavier Douville
