Just tested it with the current Wily version and the bug still persists.
So I had a look into the systemd service script and I was able to fix it
for myself, simply copy this to file
/lib/systemd/system/watchdog.service :
<snip>
[Unit]
Description=watchdog daemon
Conflicts=wd_keepalive.service
After=multi-user.target
OnFailure=wd_keepalive.service
[Service]
Type=forking
EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/watchdog
ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c '[ -z "${watchdog_module}" ] || [ "${watchdog_module}"
= "none" ] || /sbin/modprobe $watchdog_module'
ExecStart=/bin/sh -c '[ $run_watchdog != 1 ] || exec /usr/sbin/watchdog
$watchdog_options'
ExecStopPost=/bin/sh -c '[ $run_wd_keepalive != 1 ] || false'
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
</snip>
How do I submit patches/fixes to the Canonical repos so that fix get
into the distro ?
