Package: rwhod Version: 0.17-10 Severity: important Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: incorrect-dependency
With dependency based boot sequencing, I discovered what I believe is a bug in the init.d script. The dependencies are not correct. The daemon log to syslog, and thus should depend on $syslog. This will make rwhod start before the syslog implementation, and the first syslog messages logged might be lost. <URL: http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.1.0/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/initscrcomconv.html > documents the LSB header format. Some debian notes are available from <URL: http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts >. This patch should solve the issue. Without it, the init.d will start to early in the boot sequence. diff -ur netkit-rwho-0.17/debian/rwhod.init netkit-rwho-0.17-pere/debian/rwhod.init --- netkit-rwho-0.17/debian/rwhod.init 2009-08-14 17:50:28.000000000 +0200 +++ netkit-rwho-0.17-pere/debian/rwhod.init 2009-08-14 17:52:43.000000000 +0200 @@ -2,8 +2,8 @@ ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: rwhod -# Required-Start: $remote_fs $network -# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $network +# Required-Start: $remote_fs $network $syslog +# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $network $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Server for rwho and ruptime services Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
