Package: chrony
Version: 2.2.1-1
Severity: serious
User: [email protected]
Usertags: piuparts
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed the piuparts
upgrade test because dpkg detected a conffile as being modified and then
prompted the user for an action. As there is no user input, this fails.
But this is not the real problem, the real problem is that this prompt
shows up in the first place, as there was nobody modifying this conffile
at all, the package has just been installed and upgraded...
This is a violation of policy 10.7.3, see
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s10.7.3,
which says "[These scripts handling conffiles] must not ask unnecessary
questions (particularly during upgrades), and must otherwise be good
citizens."
https://wiki.debian.org/DpkgConffileHandling should help with figuring
out how to do this properly.
In https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/08/msg00675.html and
followups it has been agreed that these bugs are to be filed with
severity serious.

Configuration file '/etc/chrony/chrony.keys'
==> File on system created by you or by a script.
==> File also in package provided by package maintainer.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.

Description:
chrony - Versatile implementation of the Network Time Protocol
Closes: 818235 820087
Changes:
chrony (2.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Import upstream version 2.3:
- Please see /usr/share/doc/chrony/changelog.gz for the release notes.
(Closes: #818235)
.
* debian/chrony.conf:
- Drop the “logchange” directive. Upstream has enabled “logchange” by
default with a threshold of 1 second. We now use that instead of our custom
threshold of 0,5 second which tended to spam syslog.
- Remove obsolete comment.
.
* debian/chrony.lintian-overrides:
- Update “chrony.keys” path
.
* debian/control:
- Bump standard-version to 3.9.8 (no changes required).
- Use HTTPS transport protocol for the homepage URL.
.
* debian/copyright:
- Add some entries about new or untracked files.
.
* debian/postinst:
- Move /usr/share/chrony/chrony.keys template to /etc/chrony using ucf.
- Avoid displaying needless prompt when upgrading to chrony ≥ 2.2.1-1.
(Closes: #820087)
.
* debian/postrm:
- Remove chrony.keys on purge.
- Remove all vestiges of chrony.keys from the state hashfile.
.
* debian/rules:
- Re-enable test suite.
- Remove dh_installinit override. The init script is LSB-compliant so
passing the “default” option or the two-digit sequence number is unneeded.
- Explicitly set the NTP era. With this change, the NTP time will be
mapped from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z to 2106-02-07T06:28:16Z. Thanks to this
fixed value, chrony build should be reproducible.
- Move the key file template (chrony.keys) in /usr/share/chrony.
- Force /usr/share/chrony/chrony.keys to use 0640 modes.
