Hi, the issue only occurs if the local bash profile contains any echo statements:
root@unstable:~# /etc/init.d/dirmngr restart [ ok ] Stopping DirMngr: dirmngr. [ ok ] Starting DirMngr: dirmngr. root@unstable:~# echo "echo \"This is a test\!\"" > /etc/profile.d/bla.sh root@unstable:~# /etc/init.d/dirmngr restart [ ok ] Stopping DirMngr: dirmngr. [....] Starting DirMngr: dirmngr/etc/init.d/dirmngr: 1: eval: This: not found . ok root@unstable:~# I'm attaching a proposed patch to fix the issue and I could also do an NMU to fix the package. With the patch: root@unstable:~# ps aux |grep dir root 4277 0.0 0.0 18576 788 ?
