--- Begin Message ---Package: varnish Version: 1.1.2 Severity: important Varnish has this very cool feature that let you write inline C in the configuration. If you need to link some libraries to the configuration you need to pass the CC parameters. I used this, to link GeoIP to varnish: DAEMON_OPTS=" -a :80 -T localhost:6082 \ -p 'cc_command=exec cc -fpic -shared -Wl,-x -L/usr/local/lib -lGeoIP -o %o %s' \ -f /etc/varnish/default.vcl \ -s file,/var/lib/varnish/$INSTANCE/varnish_storage.bin,3G" but it ends up escaped in a very weird way (output from sh -x /etc/init.d/varnish start) [...] + DAEMON_OPTS=' -a :80 -p "cc_command=exec cc -fpic -shared -Wl,-x -L/usr/local/lib -lGeoIP -o %o %s" -T localhost:6082 -f /etc/varnish/default.vcl -s file,/var/lib/varnish/$INSTANCE/varnish_storage.bin,3G' [...] varnishd+ start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/varnishd.pid --exec /usr/sbin/varnishd -- -P /var/run/varnishd.pid -a :80 -p '"cc_command=exec' cc -fpic -shared -Wl,-x -L/usr/local/lib -lGeoIP -o %o '%s"' -T localhost:6082 -f /etc/varnish/default.vcl -s 'file,/var/lib/varnish/$INSTANCE/varnish_storage.bin,3G' [...] As a temp fix, you can hardcode the -p line directily in /etc/init.d/varnish but I would love to see a bugfix. tnx -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages varnish depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii gcc 4:4.3.2-2 The GNU C compiler ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libc6-dev [libc-dev] 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Development Librari ii libncurses5 5.7+20081213-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libvarnish0 1.1.2 Shared libraries for Varnish varnish recommends no packages. varnish suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

--- Begin Message ---I think you need to write your own init script. I've not found a shell that lets you preserve layers of shell quoting between the default and init script. I'm closing this bug. -- Stig Sandbeck Mathisen ooo, shiny!
