Package: firebird2.0-super firebird2.0-classic Version: 2.0.3.12981.ds1-7 Severity: important Tags: patch User: initscripts-ng-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: incorrect-provides incorrect-dependency
With dependency based boot sequencing, I discovered what I believe is a bug in the init.d script. The provides should be unique and preferably the name of the script. The script uses files in /usr/, and because of this should depend on $remote_fs. The programs uses syslog, which make me believe it should start after the syslog collector and depend on $syslog. The empty should-* headers do not have any effect and can be dropped. I notice that the update-rc.d call installs useless stop symlinks for the firebird2.0-classic.init script in runlevels 0, 1 and 6. I choose not to replicate this in the header, as the script obviously only should run during boot to create the required directories. <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 script will fail to install if another script providing the same words already is installed, and might too early in the boot if it is installed. diff -ru firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2/debian/firebird2.0-classic.init firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-pere/debian/firebird2.0-classic.init --- firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2/debian/firebird2.0-classic.init 2009-08-18 14:22:15.000000000 +0200 +++ firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-pere/debian/firebird2.0-classic.init 2009-08-18 14:23:04.000000000 +0200 @@ -1,11 +1,9 @@ #!/bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO -# Provides: firebird-server -# Required-Start: $local_fs +# Provides: firebird2.0-classic +# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: -# Should-Start: -# Should-Stop: # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: # Short-Description: Initialise firebird directory inder /var/run diff -ru firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2/debian/firebird2.0-super.init firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-pere/debian/firebird2.0-super.init --- firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2/debian/firebird2.0-super.init 2009-08-18 14:22:15.000000000 +0200 +++ firebird2.0-2.0.5.13206-0.ds2-pere/debian/firebird2.0-super.init 2009-08-18 14:22:58.000000000 +0200 @@ -9,11 +9,9 @@ # init scripts. ### BEGIN INIT INFO -# Provides: firebird-server -# Required-Start: $local_fs $named -# Required-Stop: $local_fs -# Should-Start: -# Should-Stop: +# Provides: firebird2.0-super +# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog $named +# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start firebird super-server Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
