• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Joachim Schlöffel 2005-12-05 00:55:33 UTC]

<cut>
depend() {
        need net
}

start() {
        ebegin "Starting ngIRCd"
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/ngircd
        eend $? "Failed to start ngIRCd"
}

stop() {
        ebegin "Stopping ngIRCd"
        start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/ngircd
        eend $? "Failed to stop ngIRCd"
}
</cut>
In depend block there sould be a line like
provide ircd

Without this, other services (e.g. net-irc/ircservices) do not recongnize ngirc
as an irc daemon.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge net-irc/ngircd
2. emerge net-irc/ircservices
3. /etc/init.d/ircservices start

Actual Results:  
ircd
 * ERROR:  Some services needed are missing.  Run
 *         './ircservices broken' for a list of those
 *         services.  "ircservices" was not started.


Expected Results:  
 * Caching service dependencies ...  [ ok ]
 * Starting ngIRCd ...               [ ok ]
 * Starting IRC Services ...         [ ok ]

after changing /etc/init.d/ngircd to:
<cut>
depend() {
        need net
        provide ircd
}
</cut>
all is OK
