Bug 67444 – aimsniff lacks an init script

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Bryan Ragon 2004-10-13 12:36:40 UTC]

when I emerged aimsniff it emerged without installing a configuration script in /etc/init.d

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge aimsniff
2. check /etc/init.d


Actual Results:  
there is no init script installed

Expected Results:  
ideally an init script would be created to make it easier to start/stop the
aimsniff daemon

I have writted an init scrit that works with gentoo

aimsniff ebuild patch

If the init script by Bryan is put into ${FILESDIR} in portage as aimsniff.rc,
then the ebuild resulting from my patch will make sure that it is added to
/etc/init.d/

I have also added a warning to the user that the gdbm use-flag must be turned
on when compiling perl.  See bug #85678.

aimsniff ebuild patch

Problem with perl and gdbm has been fixed.  (See bug #85678.)

ewarning in attachment #53728 [details, diff] is unnecessary.
