Package: zeroconf Version: 0.6.1-1 Severity: important
Zeroconf has been installed on my system recently by some other package. Now, annoyingly when the system boots ifup hangs after "Configuring network interfaces". I can reproduce the problem in the following manner: # /etc/init.d/networking stop Deconfiguring network interfaces...done. # /etc/init.d/networking start Configuring network interfaces...ifup: interface lo already configured recv failed: Network is down <here the script hangs> If I press Ctrl-c the network does appear to have been configured correctly (I don't know about zeroconf, though). The script does not hang if I move the zeroconf file in /etc/network/if-up.d away. My interface file looks like this: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp If I run "/etc/init.d/networking start" with strace, then the last lines are write(1, "Configuring network interfaces.."..., 33Configuring network interfaces...) = 33 stat64(".", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 stat64("/usr/local/sbin/ifup", 0xbfcde0b8) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/usr/local/bin/ifup", 0xbfcde0b8) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/sbin/ifup", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=26400, ...}) = 0 stat64("/sbin/ifup", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=26400, ...}) = 0 brk(0x8133000) = 0x8133000 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [INT CHLD], [], 8) = 0 _llseek(255, -9, [2423], SEEK_CUR) = 0 clone(ifup: interface lo already configured child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD, child_tidptr=0xb7e3f708) = 7219 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0 rt_sigaction(SIGINT, {0x807a090, [], 0}, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0 waitpid(-1, recv failed: Network is down <here it hangs> -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12 Locale: LANG=da_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=da_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages zeroconf depends on: ii ifupdown 0.6.7 high level tools to configure netw ii iproute 20041019-4.1 Professional tools to control the ii libc6 2.3.5-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an zeroconf recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
