Package: checkservice
Version: 1.1.0-11
Severity: minor

I'm using the following action for my services
e.g. for exim4:
service=25:smtp:x:Exim4:/etc/init.d/exim4 stop; /etc/init.d/exim4 start

/etc/init.d/exim4 uses start-stop-daemon to control exim4 but does not
set the PATH variable to /usr/sbin

so the checkservice action fails with:
Stopping MTA: Starting MTA: /etc/init.d/exim4: line 56:
start-stop-daemon: command not found

I think it would be nice to define some default PATH values before
running any action.

an other solutions would be to use env for my actions:
service=25:smtp:x:Exim4:env PATH=/usr/sbin /etc/init.d/exim4 restart
but I would prefer it when checkservice defines some PATH values because
I'm lazy and don't want to check each script in /etc/init.d for missing
PATH variables.

thanks!
