Package: open-iscsi
Version: 2.0.873-3
Severity: normal
Hello open-iscsi maintainers,
Playing with debsums on a pre-wheezy box, it seems that open-iscsi is missing
md5sums
on config files under /etc/init.d/ and /etc/iscsi/*.
It would be appreciated if those could be added. In time for wheezy would be
nice.
Thanks,
@+,
Fab

I've recently started co-maintaining this package and have been going
through the list of bugs. The issue reported here is not a bug:
conffiles typically don't have their md5sums in a separate file, but as
part of the package control file.
With regards to your comment:

I don't know how you got this number - on a Wheezy box with > 3000
packages installed, I have only a couple of packages with files in /etc
in the md5sums file (33 files in 14 packages). For a Jessie box with a
similar set of packages, I get exactly the same number (33 files in 14
packages), and for a Squeeze box with more than 2500 packages it's also
comparable (29 files in 13 packages) And those are mostly exceptions,
such as sysv-rc with /etc/init.d/README (not a configuration file).
Note that this is a good thing: if you include configuration files in
/var/lib/dpkg/info/*.md5sums, running debsums to verify the installed
package's integrity will complain - and it should not, because
configuration files are supposed to be editable.
That said, you can query the md5sums of configuration files, just use:
dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}\n' open-iscsi
If you want to automatically check if there were modifications, you can
do (as root, because you don't have permissions to all files as a user):
dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}\n' open-iscsi | \
awk '{printf("%s %s\n", $2, $1);}' | \
md5sum -c
(Note that this will always fail for /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi,
because the name there is generated upon starting the daemon for the
first time, the file in the package just has Generated=Yes or so.)
Closing this bug.
Christian
