Package: ntop Version: 2:3.0-5 Severity: normal First of all: This might be considered a wishlist bug, but since LSB compliance is a release goal for Etch, I leave it at Severity normale.
Now to the bug itself: /etc/init.d/ntop reload Doesn't reload but instead restarts. This is not LSB conforming. According to LSB, the script should instead return error code "3" (feature not implemented), see bottom of the LSB 20.2 Init Script Actions at: http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_3.1.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptact.html The list of action on the top of that page says about the reload action: reload cause the configuration of the service to be reloaded without actually stopping and restarting the service So the current behaviour of ntop's init script is breaking LSB rules and (what's more IMHO) is acting differently from what users would expect. Especially since ntop doesn't keep collected data over restarts.
