Package: lsb-base Version: 3.1-10 Severity: normal
if TERM is set to xterm-mono the function log_use_fancy_output() returns true and the log_* functions the try to use `tput setaf 1` and `tput op`. These two fail with TERM=xterm-mono and scripts like /etc/init.d/apache2 exit at that point since they have "set -e" switched on. You can fix this by changing each `tput setaf 1` to `tput setaf 1 || exit 0` etc. or change the log_use_fancy_output() to test "tput setaf" like it tests "tput hpa". Actually I think the log_use_fancy_output function could be removed. The present function is only used to set the variables RED YELLOW and NORMAL so it could be replaced with something like TPUT=/usr/bin/tput EXPR=/usr/bin/expr if [ "x$TERM" != "xdumb" ] && [ -x $TPUT ] && [ -x $EXPR ] \ && $TPUT hpa 60 >/dev/null 2>&1 && $TPUT setaf 1 >/dev/null 2>&1; then FAILURE="`$TPUT setaf 1`*`$TPUT op` " FAILED=" `$TPUT setaf 1`failed!`$TPUT op`" WARNING="`$TPUT setaf 3`*`$TPUT op` " else FAILURE="" FAILED=" failed! WARNING="" fi and then you just use those variables in the log_* functions without having to have an if-then-else construct. It also means that you don't have to worry about /usr being unmounted half way through a script since you've cached all the necessary terminfo magic at the start and you no longer need tput. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages lsb-base depends on: ii ncurses-bin 5.5-2 Terminal-related programs and man ii sed 4.1.5-1 The GNU sed stream editor lsb-base recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
