Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ldm
Based on the documentation I've looked at, I understood that SHUTDOWN_TIME was a simple daily trigger. After setting the SHUTDOWN_TIME value, the system kept popping up the shudown dialog (10s to shutdown) every time ldm started. After looking in /usr/share/ldm/rc.d/I01-halt-check I noticed two issues. At first, the script does not check if the $SHUTDOWN_TIME variable is actually defined (has a value) and that the date checks tell the system to always shutdown between the shutdown time specified and midnight. I propose that the documentation for LTSP contain a snippet of this behaviour if this is fully intended, or otherwise change the test to be optional, as it's not required unless this behaviour was intended :).
