Package: xprt-common
Version: 0.1.0.alpha1-4
Severity: important
After doing an apt-get upgrade, I couldn't start an X session any more
(neither via kdm, nor from the cmd line with "startx").
After such a failed attempt, the file ~/.xsession-errors contains this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat .xsession-errors
Xsession: X session started for dh at Fri Jan 14 11:36:21 CET 2005
/etc/init.d/xprint: 531: Syntax error: Bad substitution
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
Actually this is more of a "grave" or even "critical" bug, but I can
only imagine that it must have to do with my oarticular system,
otherwise all "testing" distributions must have broken yesterday!
Not knowing what to do I at first tried to uninstall xprt-common, but
x-window-system depends on it. So I worked around quite brutally by
just adding the line "exit 0" right after the #!/bin/bash bit of
/etc/init.d/xprint.
At least now I can log back into my system. Just for curiosity: Why does
a file from /etc/init.d/ get executed from a user process? I thought all
the stuff in this directory was strictly system-startup stuff.
(I tried to file the same bug report 2 hours ago, but it didn't show up
in the BTS, nor did I get a reply email. If it ever made it to the BTS,
please delete it. Thanks and sorry for possibly having created
confusion).
