--- Begin Message ---Package: ntpdate Version: 1:4.2.4p4+dfsg-4 Severity: serious Justification: breaks boot process Dear all, ntpdate hangs the boot process in certain cases: it starts /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate with set -e, but the calls to ntpdate-debian exit with an error message, so the script terminates immediately, and thus the lockfile is not removed, from the code: set -e ... /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian -s $OPTS 2>/dev/null if [ -x /usr/bin/lockfile-create ] ; then kill $LOCKTOUCHPID lockfile-remove $LOCKFILE fi Now since ntpdate-debian return 1, the process is terminated immediately and the kill/lockfile-remove is never executed. But, later on, the ntp server tries to start and checks for the same lockfile and hangs there (ok, after 5min it will continue because lockfile utils consider an 5m untouched file stale, but that is not an option for booting). -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-wl (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-15, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO-8859-15 (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages ntpdate depends on: ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcap1 1:1.10-14 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8g-8 SSL shared libraries ii netbase 4.32 Basic TCP/IP networking system Versions of packages ntpdate recommends: ii lockfile-progs 0.1.11-0.1 Programs for locking and unlocking -- no debconf information
