It if works with 1.14.15 don't report the bug against 1.14.15 as you did. Take care to put the first version that you know to be broken in the Version: field in your bug report. Here is a failed run with 1.14.16.1 and a successful run with 1.14.15: Just for your information, the build will fail again with the fixed version (1.14.16.3) but you'll see an error message this time.

Bug#462216: start-stop-daemon with --retry hangs on
Package: dpkg Version: 1.14.16.2 Severity: critical Hello, since the last updates on the dpkg package, I noticed that all start scripts which are using the start-stop-daemon with the '--retry 60' option no longer works on stopping them. For example: network-manager dhcbd dbus All these three (and I think that are even more packages) using the --retry option in stopping their daemons. They are stopping but the init script won't exit so that an simple restart will fail or the computer won't halt correctly. -- Mit freundlichem Gruß / With kind regards, Patrick Matthäi E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#462225: start-stop-deamon: select() failed for pause: Invalid argument
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.13.25
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Lighttpd often dies when rotating the logs. Trying to reproduce the error
manually I got the following error.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# /etc/init.d/lighttpd reload
* Reloading web server configuration lighttpd
start-stop-daemon: select() failed for pause: Invalid argument (Invalid
argument)
This may or may not be the cause of the logrotate problems. But it surely tells
me that start-stop-daemon is broken.

Bug#462160: Get error message Starting ipw3945 regulatory daemon: ipw3945d failed!
On Tue, 22 Jan 2008, Cian Wilson wrote:
This appears to have been caused by a change in the input argument
--chuid into start-stop-daemon (which is in the dpkg package) within
ipw3945d. It no longer accepts ${DAEMON_OWNER} as being
Debian-ipw3945d:Debian-ipw3945d and instead requires only
Debian-ipw3945d. Making this change in the definition of
${DAEMON_OWNER} (with suitable other alterations to where
${DAEMON_OWNER} is used in chown commands) fixes the problem.

hmm you seem to use a testing sid mix, ipw3945d is dead anyway,
keeping that as rc as reminder to remove it as soon as 2.6.24
has reached testing. kernels = 2.6.23 have iwlwifi

(It's rather unlikely that we do a dpkg update in stable for this specific problem) Thank you for your prompt response. This patch started out as a patch of our current Ubuntu packages to solve this particular error and I just wanted to send it upstreams, where it apparently already has been fixed. Good work. :) I would argue that this patch (or a backport of your version) should be included in stable versions of Debian and Ubuntu because of it's severity. The bug causes several services not to restart properly and does so quite randomly. I have seen several work-arounds involving waiting one or two seconds extra between stoping and restarting services. In my world 2 seconds of down time is a slight disaster. This fix solves the actual problem and at least should spawn a healthy rewrite of init.d and logrotate scripts in unstable. regards, Andreas Påhlsson Xcerion Please note that this message may contain confidential information.
