Package: sleepd
Version: 1.3.6
Severity: normal
Hello,
after upgrading from 1.3.5 dpkg couldn't start sleepd any longer,
aborting with
Starting sleep daemon: sleepd/usr/sbin/sleepd: invalid option -- F
Usage: sleepd [-s command] [-d command] [-u n] [-U n] [-i n [-i n ..]] [-a]
[-n] [-c n] [-b n] [-A]
This is because my /etc/default/sleepd has a quoted --sleep-command
option argument configured in the shell variable PARAMS:
PARAMS="--ac-unused=0 --unused=600 --battery=5
--sleep-command='/usr/sbin/hibernate -F
/etc/hibernate/hibernate.conf.ram.sleepd'"
Passing this unquoted to the lsb function start_daemon results in the
loss of the proper quotation and hence the error message. The easy fix
is to quote "$PARAMS" when calling start_daemon, patch is attached.
Kind regards
WK
