Package: smokeping Version: 2.6.9-1 Severity: normal Hi!
In the postinst the following commands are executed: ,---- | chown smokeping:smokeping /var/lib/smokeping | chown smokeping:smokeping /etc/smokeping/smokeping_secrets | chmod 640 /etc/smokeping/smokeping_secrets `---- This unconditionally destroys any custom permissions the admin may have set. Overwriting the permissions for /etc/smokeping/smokeping_secrets is especially desastrous because this file needs to be read by the www-data user (or group) to allow slaves to connect correctly. Right now the only option is to use POSIX-ACLs to allow www-data to read that file because if you just use "chgrp www-data" this change will get overwritten the next time the package is updated. Also the directory /var/lib/smokeping needs to be writable by www-data to allow the data submitted by the slaves to be written to the RRD files or you will get errors like this in the Apache error log: smokeping.cgi [client 10.1.1.32]: Could not update /var/lib/smokeping//Remote/Campus_Remote/swXXX-remote-v1.smoke-slave.slave_cache, giving up for now. at /usr/share/perl5/Smokeping/Master.pm line 156.
