Package: pmacct
Version: 0.12.5-4

In the current initscripts, the stop function has been changed to use
SIGTERM instead of SIGINT.

SIGTERM kicks the processes over in a way, that may cause sampled data
not yet pushed to backend storage to be lost. For this reason, please
change them back to SIGINT.

The best way to implement this, would probably be to let the SIGINT'ed
processes finish before returning from the stop function. This makes
sure that we don't have a lot of leftover processes in case overloaded
databases and such.

(The changelog for 0.12.5-4 suggest that the change back to SIGINT is
included, but that does not seem to be the case - This bug serves as a
reminder for this)
