Just for the sake of providing more information to this bug log: can you please be more specific? In fact /usr/share/python/runtime.d/flumotion.rtupdate does not use directly python, but it does use invoke-rc.d on flumotion. In turn /etc/init.d/flumotion does not invoke directly python, but will eventually invoke /usr/sbin/flumotion which is a #!/usr/bin/python. I believe that invocation path (which is of course buggy!) is what you were referring to, confirmation would be appreciate, also to be sure I'm not missing some other run path Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli -o- PhD in Computer Science \ PostDoc @ Univ.
