Please check for duplicate bug reports before filing a new bug. It's
already fixed in 1.14.16.3.

Bug#462216: start-stop-daemon with --retry hangs on

2008-01-23 Thread Patrick Matthäi

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.
