Attached is a cups upstart job that avoids the need for polling in the post-start script by using 'expect daemon', which is how this *should* work. However, there seem to be a pair of bugs preventing this from working as designed. First, upstart does not wait until cups is daemonized before considering the main process started; this may have to do with the fact that cups re-execs itself with different arguments (strange?). Second, even though cupsd immediately dies with a symbol error, upstart marks the job as "running" with no PID.
We still need to fix the libcups2/cups package relationships regardless, and we should probably just leave the cups upstart job alone for now. I'll raise bugs on upstart for the discovered issues. ** Attachment added: "cups.conf" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/+bug/854490/+attachment/2432344/+files/cups.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/854490 Title: update from natty to oneiric hangs on libpam0g upgrade and cups reload To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/854490/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
