The reason behind this is that upstart won't prevent a running job from restarting when its start condition no longer applies, so the package upgrade just restarted cups-browsed which obviously didn't fix the problem. The start condition should however fix the problem for any subsequent boot of the machine.
I could have added something along the lines of "initctl status avahi- daemon 2>&1 | grep -q 'start/running' || stop cups-browsed" to the postinst, but that's fairly ugly and I didn't think was justified considering the limited number of affected people and the fact that it's a development release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098756 Title: cups-browsed keeps respawning To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/avahi/+bug/1098756/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
