Package: totd Version: 1.4-3 Severity: normal
When dhcp3-client is used for acquiring network configuration, postinstall script doesn't find its configuration patches and doesn't write dhclient-enter-hooks dhcp3-client keeps its configuration in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf instead of /etc/dhclient.conf and uses directory of hook files /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d So, it should be quite easy to modify install scripts so that they would check for such setup and write neccessary hook into /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/totd instead of /etc/dhclient-enter-hooks There is a workaround: One can create symlink to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf in /etc before installation/reconfiguration of totd and then move created dhclient-enter-hooks file into /etc/dhcpl3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/totd Probably, simular problem occurs with other DHCP clients included in Debian distribution such as pump, dhcpcd, udhcpc I can imagine that some of these dhcp clients are not flexible enough to allow totd function as automatically reconfigurable proxy DNS server. I think that in should be somehow mentioned in the totd package documentation, for instance in README.Debian, that totd interoperable only with such and such dhcp clients. But dhcp3-client should be supported, because it is easier to support it than to explain why it is not supported. ii dhcp3-client 3.0.1-2 DHCP Client -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-tp600 Locale: LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R (charmap=KOI8-R) Versions of packages totd depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.30.13 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii perl 5.8.4-8 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction -- debconf information: * totd/rewrite_dhcp_script: totd/support_ipv6_prefix: false * totd/use_ipv6: false * totd/manage_with_debconf: true totd/ipv6_prefix: * totd/dns_server: 192.168.217.1 * totd/rewrite_resolv_conf: true totd/bad_dns_server: * totd/move_existing_nondebconf_config: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
