Bug#537545: Failure message upon startup

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

In a Squeeze desktop installation with KDM, this failure is the only
one reported.  On my system it made a read 'failure' flash across the
screen.  Please fix this before Squeeze is released, to avoid a lot of
support requests from users confused by the error reported.

Happy hacking,

Bug#537545: Failure message upon startup

[Simon Richard Grint]

Package: fam
Version: 2.7.0-14

Upon running /etc/init.d/fam restart, an error message occurs:

Stopping file alteration monitor: FAM.
FAM is not running failed!
Starting file alteration monitor: FAM.

This is related to the fix for #377039.  The initscript now stops the process,
then runs status_of_proc before attempting to restart the daemon. 
Everything works fine, although status_of_proc (correctly) complains that
fam is not running at that stage.

This bug has no effect on the system, but may create concern amongst users.

Best wishes

Richard
