Title:
epotes-client relies on /lib/lsb/init-functions, which may not provide
the desired functionality in non-Debian-based distros
Status in Epoptes:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Current epoptes-client main script sources /lib/lsb/init-functions,
which provide logging functions "log_begin_msg()" and "log_end_msg()"
on Debian-based distros.
However, openSUSE 12.3's /lib/lsb/init-functions doesn't provide these
functions. Instead, it provides "log_success_msg()",
"log_warning_msg()" and "log_failure_msg()".
Moreover, it sources another openSUSE-specific config file named
"/etc/rc.status", which exports LC_ALL=POSIX. This will set
LC_ALL=POSIX in the environment of any command executed by Epoptes'
execute dialog, which can lead to applications being opened in
english, instead of user's default locale.
So, before sourcing /lib/lsb/init-functions, epoptes-client should
check if distro is Debian-based (check for /etc/debian_version?). If
sourcing /lib/lsb/init-functions is still desirable in openSUSE,
please notice that
- the logging functions are different (see above),
- you should explicitly source file /etc/profile.d/lang.sh to get rid of
LC_ALL, if its value is other than $LANG.
