Package: iodine
Version: 0.6.0~rc1-4
Severity: serious
When I upgrade iodine it'll overwrite my changes in
/etc/default/iodine. This appears to be done by this bit in
debian/postinst:
db_get iodine/start_daemon
START_IODINED=$RET
db_get iodine/daemon_options
IODINED_ARGS=$RET
db_get iodine/daemon_password
IODINED_PASSWORD=$RET
cat <<EOF > /etc/default/iodine
# Default settings for iodine. This file is sourced from
# /etc/init.d/iodined
START_IODINED="$START_IODINED"
IODINED_ARGS="$IODINED_ARGS"
IODINED_PASSWORD="$IODINED_PASSWORD"
EOF
Since it sources the file it'll be changed like this after upgrade:
$ sudo git diff default/iodine
diff --git a/default/iodine b/default/iodine
index 4132933..b9384c4 100644
--- a/default/iodine
+++ b/default/iodine
@@ -2,4 +2,4 @@
# /etc/init.d/iodined
START_IODINED="true"
IODINED_ARGS="-c -p 5252 172.31.255.1/27 MY-HOSTNAME"
-IODINED_PASSWORD="$(cat /etc/iodine/passwd/iodine)"
+IODINED_PASSWORD="my seekrt password"
Where "my seekrt password" is the contents of
/etc/iodine/passwd/iodine. There's two things wrong with this:
* /etc/default/iodine is sourced as a shell file, and due to
constructs like $() you can't source it and write out the relevant
variables again without making changes like these.
* /etc/default/iodine is a configuration file. You should ask before
modifying it as most Debian packages do (per policy) for their
configuration files. The iodine package isn't doing this, hence
marking this bug as "serious".

Description:
iodine - tool for tunneling IPv4 data through a DNS server
Closes: 612721 612723
Changes:
iodine (0.6.0~rc1-5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Don't source /etc/default/iodine in config script but read out the values
with awk. This allows to use shell constructs like $() in the file and
preserve them during re-configuration (closes: #612723).
Thanks to "Debian bug at v.nix.is" for the bug report.
* Add a logcheck filter; thanks to martin f krafft for the bug report and
the logcheck file (closes: #612721).
* Add patch armel_ftbfs.patch: Rename struct user to struct _user in the
code to avoid naming conflict caused by including <sys/user.h> as part of
the armel build. Taken from Ubuntu; not needed currently in Debian but
saves Ubuntu from carrying the patch and might be helpful later.
