Package: sysv-rc Version: 2.86.ds1-61 Scenario: I want to update Debian within a chroot environment. To make sure that no runlevel scripts are started I install a policy-rc.d file in /usr/sbin saying
#!/bin/sh exit 101 Problem: During the update I get several warnings saying invoke-rc.d: ---------------------------------------------------- invoke-rc.d: WARNING: invoke-rc.d called during shutdown sequence invoke-rc.d: enabling safe mode: initscript policy layer disabled invoke-rc.d: ---------------------------------------------------- (e.g. for cron). Of course there is no shutdown sequence going on. /var/run/utmp and others (maybe some forgoten *.pid files, or whatever) in the chroot are in an undefined state, so the init scripts should not be run. Thats the reason _why_ I have put policy-rc.d into place. And surely I do not want another cron daemon running in a foreign environment keeping the chroot busy. I think that policy-rc.d should get a higher priority here. Regards Harri -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
