Package: midentd Version: 2.3.1-3 Severity: important Last actions of the post-removal script for midentd consist in adding the identd configuration line in inetd.conf.
This is done although no identd would be installed. This results in inetd not being able to start ident, and errors logged in syslog... Demonstration : 1) No identd installed : # grep ^ident /etc/inetd.conf # 2) Install midentd : # aptitude install midentd ... # grep ^ident /etc/inetd.conf ident stream tcp nowait identd /usr/sbin/midentd midentd 3) Uninstall midentd # aptitude purge midentd ... # grep ^ident /etc/inetd.conf ident stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/sbin/identd identd -i There is still no identd... hence the misconfiguration. Should be fairly easy to correct in postrm script I think. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages midentd depends on: ii adduser 3.63 Add and remove users and groups ii dpkg 1.10.28 Package maintenance system for Deb ii netbase 4.21 Basic TCP/IP networking system -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
