** Description changed: [Impact] The zfs utilities scripts shipped with debian and ubuntu such as : * arc_summary.py : Provides a summary of the statistics * arcstat.py : Print out ZFS ARC Statistics exported via kstat(1) * dbufstat.py : Print out statistics for all cached dmu buffers should be renamed according to Policy 10.4 : https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-scripts "When scripts are installed into a directory in the system PATH, the script name should not include an extension such as .sh or .pl that denotes the scripting language currently used to implement it." Ideally, this should be fixed and upstreamed to Debian (or to zfslinux upstream) as well. [Test Case] * Install zfsutils-linux * List files $ dpkg -L zfsutils-linux | egrep "arc|dbufstat" /usr/sbin/arc_summary.py /usr/sbin/arcstat.py /usr/sbin/dbufstat.py [Regression Potential] * none expected, this is a trivial change that simply rename the scripts to remove the extension (.py) with a simple 'mv' before the dh_install invocation in order to get this expected result : $ dpkg -L zfsutils-linux | egrep -i "arc|dbuf" /usr/sbin/arc_summary /usr/sbin/arcstat /usr/sbin/dbufstat [Other Info] - * Justification/argument for Xenial + * Justification/argument for Xenial https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1628279/comments/13 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1628279/comments/14 + + * Debian bug + https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=839645 * Upstream (ZoL) is reluctant to change it at upstream code level. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1628279/comments/2 * This has been flag by Adam Conrad https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1574342/comments/19 * Debian policy https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-scripts
