--- Begin Message ---Package: openvpn Version: 2.3.2-9 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, When trying to use OpenVPN in CLI mode, I usually need to provide the password to unlock my user certificate. OpenVPN normally asks me for it when initialized: -- 8< -- Tue May 6 22:36:20 2014 us=600190 OpenVPN 2.3.2 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [eurephia] [MH] [IPv6] built on Mar 17 2014 Enter Private Key Password: -- 8< -- But since the 2.3.2 update, trying to start OpenVPN gives this instead: -- 8< -- Tue May 6 22:30:37 2014 us=712490 OpenVPN 2.3.2 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [eurephia] [MH] [IPv6] built on Mar 17 2014 Tue May 6 22:30:37 2014 us=713476 ERROR: could not not read Private Key password from stdin Tue May 6 22:30:37 2014 us=713512 Exiting due to fatal error -- 8< -- After a little strace session, I got a clue about what was wrong using strace: -- 8< -- lstat("/sys/fs/cgroup", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=60, ...}) = 0 lstat("/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 -- 8< -- It seems that due to a change in OpenVPN code, it now tries to detect if systemd is installed and if yes (/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd is here), it tries to use /bin/systemd-ask-password to ask for a passphrase. See https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33588 for details I don't have systemd installed (I still use sysvinit), but still, /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd is mounted on my machine. (Due to systemd-logind maybe ?), thus breaking my OpenVPN installation. Also, umounting /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd restores the previous behavior, which is to ask for the password on stdin. A fix seems to exist upstream, but has not been committed yet: https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/274 Is it possible to apply it on Debian's package so we prevent situations like this?
