Package: sleepd Version: 1.7 Severity: normal Tags: patch The init script /etc/init.d/sleepd makes a call to the lsb init function killproc as sourced from //lib/lsb/init-functions without providing a signal argument as is expected by this function. The result is that calling /etc/init.d/sleepd stop or /etc/init.d/sleepd restart does not stop sleepd as expected and the folling error message is seen on the console:
/sbin/start-stop-daemon: signal value must be numeric or name of signal (KILL, INT, ...) Try `/sbin/start-stop-daemon --help' for more information. Attatched is a patch that adds 15 as the signal argument to send. The tested version of lsb-base is 3.2-3.
