Description dynamotwain 2004-07-29 23:20:15 UTC

net-p2p/mldonkey's ChangeLog is as follows:
15 Jul 2004; Jon Hood <squinky86@gentoo.org> files/mldonkey:
  fix mldonkey init script for more options; thanks to Matthias Bernges
  <matthiasbernges@gmx.de> for the updates

The mldonkey init script is mldonkey.init

The file that was "updated" was a wrapper that allowed normal users to run mldonkey. Now, normal users cannot start mldonkey by running /usr/bin/mldonkey.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge net-p2p/mldonkey
2. /usr/bin/mldonkey


Actual Results:  
Gentoo Linux RC Scripts
...
Usage: mldonkey <flags> [ options ]
...

Expected Results:  
The mldonkey server should have started 

mv files/mldonkey files/mldonkey.initd
restore files/mldonkey from a backup
