Package: rgpsp Version: 1.1.0-4 Severity: important Tags: patch User: initscripts-ng-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: incorrect-runlevels incorrect-dependency
With dependency based boot sequencing, I discovered what I believe is a bug in the init.d script. The list of runlevels in the init.d header do not match the arguments used by update-rc.d. Also, it uses files in /usr/ but do not depend on $remote_fs. Next, it depend on networking instead of the more correct virtual facility $network, and uses syslog without depending on $syslog. Finally, its stop action only kills the daemon, and this is normally better left to sendsigs during halt and reboot, to speed up shutdown. <URL: http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.1.0/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/initscrcomconv.html > documents the LSB header format. Some debian notes are available from <URL: http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts >. This patch should solve the issue. Without it, the service will start to early in the boot, and might fail to start because /usr/ isn't mounted yet. diff -ur gps-1.1.0.0/debian/rgpsp.init gps-1.1.0.0-pere/debian/rgpsp.init --- gps-1.1.0.0/debian/rgpsp.init 2009-08-16 22:03:39.000000000 +0200 +++ gps-1.1.0.0-pere/debian/rgpsp.init 2009-08-16 22:05:03.000000000 +0200 @@ -2,11 +2,10 @@ ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: rgpsp -# Required-Start: networking -# Required-Stop: -# Should-Start: -# Default-Start: S 2 3 4 5 -# Default-Stop: 0 6 +# Required-Start: $remote_fs $network $syslog +# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $network $syslog +# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 +# Default-Stop: 1 # Short-Description: Provides Process Statistics on a TCP port ### END INIT INFO Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
