Package: dirmngr
Version: 0.9.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
My shell is /bin/tcsh. Upon installing dirmngr (as a result of upgrading
kdepim which now depends on kleopatra which depends on, among other things,
dirmngr), dirmngr failed to start, generating the error:
/etc/init.d/dirmngr: line 1: setenv: command not found
The "line 1" is a red herring. This is actually an "eval" within the
d_start() function.
The dirmngr executable will, by default, output a shell command in whatever
shell is currently set when using --daemon. In my case, that's /bin/tcsh.
This should not normally be a problem when the system boots, but is a
problem when starting or stopping the service manually by someone who does
not use (ba)sh as their shell.
The following patch, adding the "-s" option when starting dirmngr, resolves
the problem:
