Package: postfix
Version: 2.2.8-7
Severity: normal
On my system, /usr is a symbolic link to another partition:
------------------------------------------------------------
% ls -l /usr
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Nov 29 2003 /usr -> a/usr
------------------------------------------------------------
As a result, the init script /etc/init.d/postscript fails to
successfully stop the mail sstem. The offending test starts on line
69:
------------------------------------------------------------
if [ -f /var/spool/postfix/pid/master.pid ]; then
pid=$(sed 's/ //g' /var/spool/postfix/pid/master.pid)
exe=$(ls -l /proc/$pid/exe 2>/dev/null | sed 's/.* //')
if [ "X$exe" = "X/usr/lib/postfix/master" ]; then
RUNNING=y
fi
------------------------------------------------------------
while the corresponding symbolic link points someplace else:
------------------------------------------------------------
% sudo ls -l /proc/23721/exe
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 26 00:03 /proc/23721/exe ->
/a/usr/lib/postfix/master
------------------------------------------------------------
In general, that test seems quite fragile to me.
