Package: dpkg
Version: 1.15.8.13
Severity: important
When installed from live usb/cd /sbin/start-stop-daemon is empty shell script
This results in strange behaviour of start/stop services like nfs
I read a whole bunch of issues related to nfs (rpc.statd not running)
While having another machine with same setup and nfs working I excluded the
possibility of being related to some mostly discussed bugs
I noticed that portmap and rpc.statd are simply not starting, because the
start-stop-daemon program was an empty shells script
unfortunately the version reported here was overwritten by dpkg --reinstall
install dpkg, but I hope in this way that other people having
similar issues with daemons not starting properly will solve it easily.
regards
d.

I tested on the latest debian-live installation media, this bug no
longer seems present. /sbin/start-stop-daemon exists both in the live
media and in the installed system with the proper content.
