Bugzilla Bug 110324

Please keyword denyhosts-1.1.2 with ~amd64 as it has been running stably for 30
days on my system.

A change to the initscript is necessary before keywording.  Patch attached.  The
problem is with the start-stop-daemon and I can't track it down, but it works
without the use of it.

I should add some more info here.

With the unmodified init script denyhosts will start and then stop again
immediately providing no additional info as to why in the logfile.

If I issue the start-stop-daemon command from the shell directly, this does not
happen and denyhosts starts as it should.

damn jeeves fault.. reassign to the real maintainer

I am not going to make that change to the initscript as I can see no reason why
the current one shouldn't work for everyone. Can anyone else confirm that this
is a generic amd64 issue and not something specific to the reporters setup?

I haven't thouroughly tested it but I managed to emerge, install, and run it on
AMD64 w/o the script modification.  Just a bit of keyword tweaking.  :)

In response to comment #2 I let it run for about 10 minutes, did a remote login
and exited and it was still running.  I stopped it and restarted it a few times
but could not reproduce the failure.  I don't know why Scott's machine wasn't
cooperating with him.  :(

It doesn't work for me either, here's my emerge --info output:

Output from adding an 'env' to the initscript

output of adding "env" to initscript

Here's the output of adding the "env" for me... Scott has pretty much the same
as I have.

Seems like this might be a baselayout issue, both me and Scott are running
sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre10-r1. RiverRat and a few other amd64 machines I
tested on are running 1.11.13-r1.

Created an attachment (id=72617) [edit]
updated patch for initscript that works with newer baselayout

This updated patch for the initscript continues to use start-stop-daemon and
works with the new baselayout. Needs testing on older baselayout releases.

Works for me w/ sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.13-r1.  Thanks.  (I just started and
stopped the daemon.  No thorough testing.)

The problem is that the script itself calls env python, rather then just
/usr/bin/python so while its fine for the running of the script (and
consequently why the attached patch to the init script with the startas works)
its not good for an initscript. I have elected to change the script itself and
have commited the changes to cvs. Thanks for everyones help
