Bug 247068 – app-admin/gkrellm - config not working for /etc/init.d/gkrellmd

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jörg Eitemüller 2008-11-16 14:38:41 UTC]

The /etc/init.d/gkrellmd-script wont use any configured arguments from the /etc/conf.d/gkrellmd.conf because of two reasons:

* /etc/conf.d/gkrellmd.conf has to be named /etc/conf.d/gkrellmd
* the environmentvariable is falsely labeled in /etc/init.d/gkrellmd

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:




Fix:

* run mv /etc/conf.d/gkrellmd.conf /etc/conf.d/gkrellmd
* apply the following patch to /etc/init.d/gkrellmd:
[patch]

< 	start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --pidfile /var/run/gkrellmd.pid --make-pidfile --exec /usr/bin/gkrellmd ${GKRELLM_OPTS}
---
> 	start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --pidfile /var/run/gkrellmd.pid --make-pidfile --exec /usr/bin/gkrellmd -- ${GKRELLMD_OPTS}
[/patch]

Reassigning bug to maintainer and raising severity to normal as this is really a bug that should be fixed ;)

Thanks very much, especially to Lars!

Applied the fix to gkrellm-2.3.1 and -2.3.2.
