Bug 212331 – sys-process/daemontools-scripts has invalid homepage

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Luca Lesinigo 2008-03-04 23:50:39 UTC]

daemontools-scripts has http://dev.gentoo.org/~kaiowas/ as HOMEPAGE but it's just a 404 not found, this makes it difficult to gather documentation about what those scripts are and what they do.

[Comment 1 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2008-03-04 23:53:57 UTC]

Yeah... so, you have a valid one? We don't, since there's none.

[Comment 2 Luca Lesinigo 2008-03-05 08:58:29 UTC]

Actually I don't even know what these scripts do - I was looking for some doc but then didn't have time to emerge and find out.

I filed this bug for the ebuild, not for the homepage. If there isn't one, shouldn't the ebuild reflect that in HOMEPAGE?

without an active maintainer, this package simply rots

mask & punt it

Masked.

daemontools-scripts is a rewrite of supervise-scripts, with a few extras:

 - sample init scripts are provided for some daemons - this was requested by some very old gentoo bugs.
 - selinux needed daemontools-scripts in order for properly start daemons under daemontools.

sorry I had no time to maintain this package any further, even if the level of maintenance needed for it is almost zero.
if anyone wants to pick up this package, he's welcome.

Removed.
