Bug 435664 – app-mobilephone/smstools 3.1.14-r2 - creation of /var/run/smsd.{pid,working} is not possible

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tomasz Chilinski 2012-09-20 15:17:21 UTC]

As in summary.
We need to:
1) Append the following lines in src_install():
diropts -o smsd -g sms -m0770
keepdir /var/run/smsd
2) Change:
	start-stop-daemon -b -u smsd:sms --start --exec /usr/bin/smsd -- \
		-c /etc/smsd.conf
to:
	start-stop-daemon -b -u smsd:sms --start --exec /usr/bin/smsd -- \
		-c /etc/smsd.conf -p /var/run/smsd/smsd.pid -i /var/run/smsd/smsd.working
in ${FILESDIR}/smsd.initd2 file.

keepdir /var/run should not be used at all (bug #332633).
