I get an error from start-stop-daemon when shutting down, that audio-entropyd hasn't got a pid file in /var/run. (when using baselayout-1.13.0-alpha10) Solution is to add --pidfile option to the start function of it's init scripts as follows: start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/audio-entropyd.pid --exec /usr/sbin/audio-entropyd -- ${params}
I don't see this error using baselayout-1.13.0_alpha10-r2 Although it would be nice to include the pidfile in that start option for more sanity. Also, it dies after a moments on my amd64 ~ARCH box. Not sure if that's related.
(In reply to comment #1) > I don't see this error using baselayout-1.13.0_alpha10-r2 On a mostly stable x86 box with baselayout-1.13.0_alpha10-r2 I get: # /etc/init.d/audio-entropyd stop * WARNING: you are stopping a boot service. * Stopping audio entropy gathering daemon ... start-stop-daemon: open pidfile /var/run/audio-entropyd.pid: No such file or directory [ ok ] With the --pidfile option it works correctly.
Eh; maintainer kinda retired (Bug 175298).
Fixed in CVS
