Package: netdata Version: 1.19.0-2~bpo10+1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I did my own backport of netdata 1.19.0-2 to buster without any change from unstable sources and noticed that mail alarms do not work. I see some "Failed to create spool file /var/spool/exim4//input//1j5uL8-0001du-VH-D: Read-only file system" errors from exim logs and "failed to send email notification" from netdata logs I believe that the change introduced by https://salsa.debian.org/debian/netdata/-/commit/421a6b0b905cd3cbb51a2cdf193f75a4166a6e5b fallbacks the fix for this issue already reported in #851852 and fixed in https://salsa.debian.org/debian/netdata/-/commit/ddac3bd0ae77f5a722df7ae2ae1938055c20012a I believe that the systemd service file should be reconsidered as far as filesystem permissions are concerned. I would recommend the following as a compromise between security and functionality, with the additional benefit of simplifying the service file maintenance: ProtectSystem=strict ReadWriteDirectories=/var What do you think ?
