Package: request-tracker3.6 Version: 3.6.6-4 Severity: serious Justification: FHS violation
Right after uploading 3.6.7-1, I noticed that the SQLite database generated in a default RT installation by dbconfig-common is accidentally stored in /var/cache/request-tracker3.6, which is obviously a Bad Thing. This is because /etc/request-tracker3.6/RT_SiteConfig.pm reads by default something like Set ($DatabaseName, 'rtdb'); # SQLite needs a special case, since $DatabaseName must be a full # pathname Set ($DatabaseName, '/var/lib/dbconfig-common/sqlite3/request-tracker3.6/rtdb') if "sqlite3" eq "sqlite3"; # end /etc/request-tracker3.6/RT_SiteConfig.d/51-dbconfig-common but the Set() function is defined in /usr/share/request-tracker3.6/lib/RT.pm as local *Set = sub { $_[0] = $_[1] unless defined $_[0] }; so the second call has no effect and the database ends up in the default directory (localstatedir, /var/cache/request-tracker3.6) instead. How embarrassing. This has been broken since 3.6.6-2~experimental2. I'll try to fix this tomorrow and make the postinst try to rectify the situation. -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
