Package: dirmngr
Version: 0.9.2-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
init script can start multiple instances of dirmngr.
# pgrep dirmngr
# for i in $(seq 1 10); do /etc/init.d/dirmngr start >/dev/null; sleep1; done
# pgrep dirmngr

# cat /var/run/dirmngr.pid
#
There is a bug in the way how init script manages /var/run/dirmngr.pid file.
With the first execution, it adds PID number to /var/run/dirmngr.pid.
With the second execution, start-stop-daemon recognizes that dirmngr
is already running and exists silently. But the init script does
echo "$pid" >$PIDFILE
$pid is empty, so it only erase pid file.
And with the third execution, start-stop-daemon starts another instance
of dirmngr (because pid file is empty).
There should be something like
[ -n "$pid" ] && { echo "$pid" >$PIDFILE || return 1; }
instead of
echo "$pid" >$PIDFILE
