Package: openntpd Version: 1:6.8p1-5 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Control: affects -1 runit-services Control: tags -1 + patch Control: user [email protected] Control: usertags -1 runit-outstanding Hello, the openntpd package used to ship a /usr/sbin/openntpd --> /usr/sbin/ntpd symlink (and also one for the manpage), with a debian/openntpd.links file in the source cat debian/openntpd.links -------------------------------- /usr/sbin/ntpd /usr/sbin/openntpd /usr/share/man/man8/ntpd.8.gz /usr/share/man/man8/openntpd.8.gz --------------------------------- please consider to restore the links (at least the /usr/sbin/openntpd); Reason: the runit integration for openntpd (currently in runit-services package) uses the path of the binary to be run by the script to trigger debhelper-like heuristic (enable/disable the service and restart during upgrades). So far /usr/sbin/openntpd was used, but now that your package removed it, /usr/sbin/ntpd would have to be used instead. The problem with /usr/sbin/ntpd is that is shipped also by the ntpsec package, and the command line is not compatible[1], so using the openntpd runscript with ntpsec or vice versa won't work. Also, partially related: if you reinstate the link, I would also consider reverting the change made to fix #1134959 in the initscript to test -e /usr/sbin/openntpd || exit 0 Thanks, Lorenzo [1] compare the two manpages https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/openntpd/ntpd.8.en.html https://manpages.debian.org/testing/ntpsec/ntpd.8.en.html -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.17.9+deb14-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: runit (via /run/runit.stopit) Versions of packages openntpd depends on: ii libc6 2.42-16 ii netbase 6.5 ii sysuser-helper [systemd-sysusers] 2.0.0 openntpd recommends no packages.
