Package: fam
Version: 2.7.0-14
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Hi,
The current init script always reports it fails before actually starting
FAM. This is because the status is checked when starting, and if FAM is
not already started, lsb will logs a failure message.
Here is a short patch "fixing" this:
--- /etc/init.d/fam.orig 2009-07-29 19:59:50.000000000 +0200
+++ /etc/init.d/fam 2009-07-29 19:59:14.000000000 +0200

case "$1" in
start)
- status_of_proc $DAEMON $NAME && exit 0
+ status_of_proc $DAEMON $NAME >/dev/null && exit 0
log_daemon_msg "Starting $DESC" "$NAME"
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec $DAEMON -- $FAMOPTS < /dev/null
log_end_msg $?
However, I think it would be much better informing the user what's happening.
Something like
Starting File Alteration Monitor: FAM already running ... (warning)
Cheers,
Julien
