Package: nscd Version: 2.3.5-8 Severity: important Tags: patch User: initscripts-ng-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: incorrect-dependency
With dependency based boot sequencing, I discovered what I believe is a slight bug in the init.d script. The dependencies are not correct. The daemon seem to log to syslog, and thus should depend on $syslog. This will make nscd start before the syslog implementation, and the first syslog messages logged might be lost. <URL: http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.1.0/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/initscrcomconv.html > documents the LSB header format. Some debian notes are available from <URL: http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts >. This patch should solve the issue. Without it, the init.d will start to early in the boot sequence. diff -ur eglibc-2.9/debian/debhelper.in/nscd.init eglibc-2.9-pere/debian/debhelper.in/nscd.init --- eglibc-2.9/debian/debhelper.in/nscd.init 2009-08-14 18:42:13.000000000 +0200 +++ eglibc-2.9-pere/debian/debhelper.in/nscd.init 2009-08-14 18:40:00.000000000 +0200 @@ -1,8 +1,8 @@ #!/bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: nscd -# Required-Start: $remote_fs -# Required-Stop: $remote_fs +# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog +# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Starts the Name Service Cache Daemon Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
