Package: boxbackup-server Version: 0.11~rc8~r2714-1+b1 Severity: grave Justification: causes non-serious data loss
With more than one client connected at a given time, if you want to stop the backup server (e.g. to shutdown, or to do disk maintenance or whatever), then you can't because init.d/boxbackup-server will only kill one PID, not all of the connected clients. This means that if you operate on the backup store believing it inactive you can corrupt data. In addition it means client connections are terminated uncleanly when shutting the system down, if there is more than one client connected at a time. Even if this isn't grave it's serious, because failing to stop processes (IIRC) associated with a init.d start script is a violation of "Debian Policy". -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'testing'), (100, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.39-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages boxbackup-server depends on: ii adduser 3.113 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.40 Debian configuration management sy ii gawk 1:3.1.7.dfsg-5 GNU awk, a pattern scanning and pr ii libc6 2.13-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.6.1-1 GCC support library ii libssl1.0.0 1.0.0d-3 SSL shared libraries ii libstdc++6 4.6.1-1 GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii openssl 1.0.0d-3 Secure Socket Layer (SSL) binary a ii perl 5.12.3-7+b1 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii ucf 3.0025+nmu2 Update Configuration File: preserv ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime boxbackup-server recommends no packages. boxbackup-server suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/boxbackup-server [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/boxbackup-server' /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/boxbackup-server [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/boxbackup-server' -- debconf information: boxbackup-server/incorrectDirectories: boxbackup-server/raidDirectories: boxbackup-server/generateCertificate: true boxbackup-server/raidBlockSize: 4096 boxbackup-server/incorrectBlocksize: boxbackup-server/debconf: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
