Package: procps Version: 3.2.1-2 Severity: minor Tags: patch When setting VERBOSE=no in /etc/default/rcS, the /etc/init.d/procps.sh will output just "... done." on a line on its own during the boot process.
The reasons is simble, only the first echo cmd is changed by the use of VERBOSE: if [ "$VERBOSE" = "no" ] then n="-n" redir=">/dev/null" else echo "Setting kernel variables ..." n="" redir="" fi eval "/sbin/sysctl $n -p $redir" echo "... done." The latter should be protected as well. I suggest using [ "$VERBOSE" != no ] && echo "... done." or the log_*_msg() functions from /lib/lsb/init-functions in the lsb-base package (like this: if [ "$VERBOSE" = "no" ] then n="-n" redir=">/dev/null" else log_begin_msg "Setting kernel variables..." n="" redir="" fi eval "/sbin/sysctl $n -p $redir" [ "$VERBOSE" != no ] && log_end_msg 0 Friendly, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
