Bitlbee does not start at boot time

[Sidnei da Silva]

Binary package hint: bitlbee

Upon upgrading to Jaunty, bitlbee no longer starts up at boot time. Instead, I have to manually issue a /etc/init.d/bitlbee restart once network is up to get it started.

ProblemType: Bug
Architecture: i386
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04
Package: bitlbee 1.2.3-1
ProcEnviron:
 PATH=(custom, user)
 LANG=en_US.UTF-8
 SHELL=/bin/bash
SourcePackage: bitlbee
Uname: Linux 2.6.28-11-generic i686

I have the same issue with Bitlbee in the 9.04 PowerPC port.

I have the same issue on 9.04 on a dell inspiron 530.

Confirmed on Jaunty 64 bit as well

Confirmed on Jaunty 64 bits as well (Trisquel 3.0 derivate from Ubuntu Jaunty 64 bits).

Is this still a problem? I'm pretty sure BitlBee started at boot last time I booted my Ubuntu karmic server, which was 45 days ago, with BitlBee 1.2.4-1.

I just rebooted my Ubuntu karmic server and BitlBee did start on boot.

Karmic doesn't have this problem

This may work on Karmic, but it is still an issue in Jaunty.

I suppose we can close this bug now that jaunty is unsupported. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
