Bug#597654: postgresql-8.4 8.4.4-2 breaks start ordering of init scripts
reassign 597654 postgresql-common 109 tag 597654 confirmed thanks Hello Adam, Adam Heath [2010-09-21 15:40 -0500]: I just upgraded postgres-8.4 from 8.4.4-1+b1 to 8.4.4-2. This removed the separate postgresql-8.4 init script, and replaced it with a common one. Previously, postgresql-8.4 would start at S19. Ah, sorry about that. I'll move the common one back to 19 then. I have postgresql listed as Should-Start in ofbiz's initscript. However, init dependencies are not active, so normal number based ordering is used. I. e. you removed insserv? I thought that was the (pretty much mandatory) default in Squeeze now.

Hello Adam, Adam Heath [2010-09-22 8:13 -0500]: Note, that this affects the version in testing. Yep, known. I mailed -release@ and got it unblocked for migration, and it's urgency=high. If insserv doesn't support multiple scripts all providing the same thing, then it is buggy. Only through some hairy workarounds apparently, but that should be quite unrelated to this bug? insserv doesn't (or at least shouldn't) care about the /etc/rc2.d/* bits.

But if insserv supported multiple provides, you wouldn't have had to change the init script management at all, and you could revert the whole thing. Instead of fixing insserv, other packages are now breaking. So instead of one broken package, we have several. ---End Message---
Bug#597654: postgresql-8.4 8.4.4-2 breaks start ordering of init scripts
Package: postgresql-8.4 Version: 8.4.4-2 Severity: serious I just upgraded postgres-8.4 from 8.4.4-1+b1 to 8.4.4-2. This removed the separate postgresql-8.4 init script, and replaced it with a common one. Previously, postgresql-8.4 would start at S19. The new version starts at S20. So, anything in S20 that required postgresql-8.4, and happens to come earlier alphabetically, will fail to start, as postgresql-8.4 starts too late. I have ofbiz as a deb package(local, not in debian, http://ofbiz.apache.org). I use dbconfig-common to manage configuring the database. I have postgresql listed as Should-Start in ofbiz's initscript. However, init dependencies are not active, so normal number based ordering is used. I've always used S20(the defaults), and everything has worked correctly. This was due to postgresql-8.4 being S19. Ofbiz doesn't require any particular version of postgresql. It'll work with all of them. It'll also work with mysql, and with derby(which is embedded into ofbiz). So I don't see a need to have a versioned Should-Start in its initscript, nor as a Depends on the package. I'm fairly certain this will break full system upgrades too(hence the reason I set the severity to serious). This bug is related to http://bugs.debian.org/585890 I would say that insserv is broken, if multiple packages can't provide the same service. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
