2009-04-27 11:33:47 Andreas Moog summary daemontools-run needs to work with upstart [SRU] daemontools-run needs to work with upstart
2009-04-27 11:42:02 Andreas Moog description Binary package hint: daemontools-run First off, I know that I am doing something I shouldn't, but I think this might be useful. I was happy to learn that daemontools and daemontools-run will be available as packages in intrepid. I am currently setting up a few hardy boxes and wanted to try installing these new intrepid packages. As you know, Ubuntu no longer uses /etc/inittab, however daemontools doesn't not know about upstart or the /etc/event.d directory. Here is the output I get when installing the daemontools-run package (after the daemontools package has already been installed): # dpkg -i daemontools-run_0.76-3_all.deb Selecting previously deselected package daemontools-run. (Reading database ... 20772 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking daemontools-run (from daemontools-run_0.76-3_all.deb) ... Setting up daemontools-run (1:0.76-3) ... grep: /etc/inittab: No such file or directory grep: /etc/inittab: No such file or directory grep: /etc/inittab: No such file or directory grep: /etc/inittab: No such file or directory grep: /etc/inittab: No such file or directory Adding SV inittab entry... cp: cannot stat `/etc/inittab': No such file or directory dpkg: error processing daemontools-run (--install): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: daemontools-run I've created boot.eventd and run.eventd files that can be used during the installation from the package/run script (there are boot.inittab and run.inittab files already), and attached them to this report. It doesn't seem that this package will be able to be installed by any Ubuntu user until it supports upstart. Thanks, Cory Binary package hint: daemontools-run SRU-JUSTIFICATION: With the original jaunty-packages, daemontools will fail to install as the postinst-script still relies on /etc/inittab to be there. As we use Upstart in Ubuntu, the script fails: # dpkg -i daemontools-run_0.76-3_all.deb [...] Adding SV inittab entry... cp: cannot stat `/etc/inittab': No such file or directory dpkg: error processing daemontools-run (--install): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: daemontools-run All users will encounter this problem, making this package effectively unusable. SRU-TESTCASE: Install daemontools-run from the repositories. It will fail (see above). Now install daemontools-run from ppa https://edge.launchpad.net/~amoog/+archive/amoog-devel . This will install the program and register it with upstart. SRU-REGRESSION-POTENTIAL: Non-existent, it does not work now, what worse can it get? ;-)
