systemd@? Sounds correct to me. If the service file is completely unusable without systemd[python], it should also be made conditional to USE=systemd. Added in 0.9.1. The dependency is still not quite right; fail2ban is installed for multiple python versions (via distutils-r1), but systemd bindings are only installed for one (via python-single-r1). I created bug 527254 to convert systemd to python-r1. |
fail2ban fails to work correctly with systemd as a backend if systemd is built without "python" useflags (which enables python bindings for systemd, used by fail2ban). Specifically, what's missing in DEPEND and RDEPEND should be: systemd? ( sys-apps/systemd[python] ) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge net-analyzer/fail2ban on a systemd system 2. ensure systemd has no "python" flag set 3. start fail2ban with some active jail Actual Results: I have omitted several "ERROR NOK" lines duplicates of the jail-specific ones: fail2ban-client[25206]: ERROR NOK: ("Failed to initialize any backend for Jail 'nginx-http-auth'",) fail2ban-client[25206]: ERROR NOK: ('nginx-http-auth',) fail2ban-client[25206]: ERROR NOK: ('nginx-http-auth',) ... fail2ban-client[25206]: ERROR NOK: ("Failed to initialize any backend for Jail 'pure-ftpd'",) fail2ban-client[25206]: ERROR NOK: ('pure-ftpd',) fail2ban-client[25206]: ERROR NOK: ('pure-ftpd',) ... Expected Results: fail2ban-client[14556]: 2014-08-22 12:44:53,436 fail2ban.server.server[14557]: INFO Starting Fail2ban v0.9.0 fail2ban-client[14556]: 2014-08-22 12:44:53,437 fail2ban.server.server[14557]: INFO Starting in daemon mode systemd[1]: Started Fail2ban Service. The problem is due to the fact that systemd has no "python" flag enabled, hence no python bindings, which are specified as a requirement with systemd on the fail2ban docs. After enabling the flag, fail2ban correctly loads the jails and starts.
