Bugzilla Bug 128988

package: sys-apps/ifplugd-0.28-r4
File: /etc/init.d/ifplugd
Line: 139
Extract from this file:

                start-stop-daemon --stop --exec /usr/sbin/ifplugd \
                        --pidfile "/var/run/ifplugd.${iface}.pid" --signal 3
                eend $? || allstopped=false

Description:

Since SIGQUIT (--signal 3) is being sent to ifpligd to stop it, the
/etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.action script is not being run on exit to turn off the
interface. The man page states that;

       SIGINT, SIGTERM ifplugd will quit, possibly running the shutdown script.
This is issued by passing -k to ifplugd.
       SIGQUIT ifplugd will quit, the shutdown script is never run.

The default for start-stop-daemon is to send SIGTERM which would let
/etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.action execute on exit. If the user then does not want
this to happen, the /etc/conf.d/ifplugd can be changed as follows;

ARGS="-q"

Fixed in -r5
