Killing postfix manually (pkill master), then running "/etc/init.d/postfix restart", will first complain that postfix can't be stopped. # /etc/init.d/postfix start # pkill master # /etc/init.d/postfix restart postfix | * Stopping postfix (/etc/postfix) ... [ !! ]x | postfix | * ERROR: postfix failed to stop However, if I pass --nocolor, then it will restart the service: # /etc/init.d/postfix --nocolor restart postfix | * Stopping postfix (/etc/postfix) ... [ !! ] postfix | * Starting postfix (/etc/postfix) ... [ ok ]

dont need to use restart to notice the issue. a simple stop shows it too. # /etc/init.d/foo stop * stop ... [ !! ] * ERROR: foo failed to stop # echo $? 1 # /etc/init.d/foo stop --nocolor * stop ... [ !! ] # echo $? 0

thanks, i can easily see the bug there http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/openrc.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ca74d7636b2fcd0c307ec2b972230f25457c786
heh, you're welcome. I looked about 3 times over it and I didn't notice the missing escape, I must be blind :D
