It is not a straight su, it is a little bit more complicated since you
actually have to setup those env. vars that are part of /etc/default/foo
Thus it ends being something really ugly like:
env -i LANG="$LANG" PATH="$PATH" TERM="$TERM" bash -c \
"[ -e /etc/default/foo ] && . /etc/default/foo
;\
exec $AGENT_SCRIPT $AGENT_ARGS > $AGENT_OUT 2>&1" &
and even then it is not a mechanical change. Since all of the init.d
scripts need to be audited for export FOO statements.
Actually, the more I think about it the more it feels like we might
benefit from templatizing all of our init.d related code and then
fixing this. I would like templatizing to be one of the features
for the Bigtop 0.5.0 releases, but perhaps for now we can just
keep in mind to always invoke service.
Thanks,
Roman.
