--- Begin Message ---Package: rsyslog Version: 2.0.3-1 Severity: critical Justification: causes serious data loss rsyslog shuts down at the start of the upgrade and only gets restarted when the package is configured. this is broken. instead of stopping rsyslog in the prerm and starting it in the postinst, just restart it in the postinst. actually, according to the comments in the scripts, it looks like the stop and start are inserted by dh_installinit. i don't know whether that's because the bug is actually in dh_installinit (debhelper package) or whether it's because your package does not use the right args to dh_installinit. here's the problem, /var/lib/dpkg/info/rsyslog.prerm: #!/bin/sh set -e # Automatically added by dh_installinit if [ -x "/etc/init.d/rsyslog" ]; then if [ -x "`which invoke-rc.d 2>/dev/null`" ]; then invoke-rc.d rsyslog stop || exit $? else /etc/init.d/rsyslog stop || exit $? fi fi # End automatically added section in a dist-upgrade, it could be many minutes - or even hours if the sysadmin doing the upgrade is doing other work simultaneously - between the start of the upgrade and the time that rsyslog is configured, especially if there are any questions waiting to be answered during the upgrade. while rsyslog is down, all log entries for the system being upgraded are lost, along with all log entries for any hosts which use that system as the syslog host. for example: Mar 15 23:10:28 ganesh rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="2.0.2" x-pid="4493" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com";] exiting on signal 15.
