Package: ltsp-server-standalone
Severity: normal
Hi,
as far as I know (but please correct me if I'm wrong),
ltsp-server-standalone only depends on 'openbsd-inetd |
inet-superserver' because of the tftp of choice.
Since tftpd-hpa 5.0-1, the tftpd is run standalone by default, not
supporting inetd mode anymore (in debian). Therefore, if possible,
please denote the depends to a recommends.
Please also denote it on the ltsp-server package if it applies there as
well.
Regards,
Daniel

so let's close the bug then, and sorry for the noise.

there are basically three reasons:
1. it's a major pita to handle inetd properly through maintainer scripts
and has been source for all sorts of problems.
2. tftpd-hpa itself has problems (upstream wise), sometimes it fails to
work when being in inetd mode, but works flawless and reliable when in
daemon mode (and as daemon, it's very tiny and doesn't consume notable
ressources).
3. when in inetd mode, it doesn't support all the features (such as ipv6).
