Bug#457753: loadcpufreq does nothing by default, cpufrequtils unusable

2007-12-25 Thread Kai Weber
Package: cpufrequtils
Version: 002-6
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


The script init.d/loadcpufreq is disabled by default, so no modules for
cpu frequency scaling are loaded. This makes init.d/cpufrequtils fail
as well.

If I read REDAME.Debian correctly this is not the desired behaviour.
loadcpufreq should be enabled by default and if someone wishes to
override this he should create a file /etc/default/loadcpufreq like
the provided example.

I guess in the loadcpufreq script a default ENABLED=true is missing.

Regards, Kai
