Package: mod-gearman-worker Version: 1.3.4-1 Severity: serious Justification: fails to install
Hi, when doing a fresh install of mod-gearman-worker that fails with the following error message: Configuration file /etc/mod-gearman/worker.conf not present...failed. invoke-rc.d: initscript mod-gearman-worker, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing mod-gearman-worker (--install): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 This is due to the init script (which is called from postinst) aborting with status 1 if the config is not there. Printing a warning message and existing with status 0 solves that problem even though I don't exactly like that either (but it's a problem other packages face as well). In that particular case, imho two approaches would be (more) sensible: - install the sample config by default - don't start mod-gearman-worker by default (e.g. thru /etc/default/ mod-gearman-worker) Cheers, Sebastian -- Sebastian "tokkee" Harl +++ GnuPG-ID: 0x8501C7FC +++ http://tokkee.org/ Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin
