Package: quagga
Version: 0.99.20.1
Severity: important

In the "stop" section of the init script /etc/init.d/quagga it unconditionally
flushes all routes from all daemons, even if just one daemon is being stopped.
For example if BGP/OSPF/OSPF6/RIP daemons are all running and learning routes,
and we stop ospfd with "/etc/init.d/quagga stop ospfd", all routes from
BGP/OSPF6/RIP will be deleted from the system routing table. Unfortunately
since the daemons maintain their peer relationships, the peers continue sending
traffic into what may be a black hole.

A suggested patch is included in the bug report for Ubuntu:
