--- Begin Message ---Package: kdm Version: 4:4.11.13-2 Dear maintainers, After one changes KDM configuration in /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc and runs `invoke-rc.d kdm reload', KDM keeps using the old configuration. The reason for such behavior is the configuration file logic used in the init script, when /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc is used only as a source for generating the "real" configuration file /var/run/kdm/kdmrc, which is the only configuration file KDM watches and reloads. I've attached a trivial patch, which makes the init script regenerate the configuration file at reload, which solves the issue. -- Алексей Шилинdiff -aNru kde-workspace-4.11.13.orig/debian/kdm.init kde-workspace-4.11.13/debian/kdm.init --- kde-workspace-4.11.13.orig/debian/kdm.init 2015-07-01 08:11:40.725609370 +0000 +++ kde-workspace-4.11.13/debian/kdm.init 2015-07-01 08:12:19.009611828 +0000 @@ -147,6 +147,7 @@ ;; reload) + setup_config log_action_begin_msg "Reloading K Display Manager configuration..." if start-stop-daemon --stop --signal 1 --quiet $SSD_ARGS; then log_action_end_msg 0
