Package: samhain
Version: 2.8.3a-1+deb7u1
Severity: serious

Hi,

the samhain in stable-updates has an init script that fails on "start"
if the service is already running:

} weasel@ball:~$ sudo service samhain start
} [....] Starting file integrity checker: samhain%
} e1:weasel@ball:~$

This can also break upgrading/configuring the package:

} weasel@ball:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
} Setting up samhain (2.8.3a-1+deb7u1) ...
} [....] Starting file integrity checker: samhaininvoke-rc.d: initscript 
samhain, action "start" failed.
} dpkg: error processing samhain (--configure):
}  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
} Errors were encountered while processing:
}  samhain
} e1:weasel@ball:~$ 

It should exit with an exit code of 0 on start if it's already running.

Please consult the policy for details, in particular
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s-writing-init

[I wouldn't be surprised if this issue was also present in testing/unstable.]

Cheers,
weasel

Distribution: unstable
Urgency: medium
Maintainer: Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña <j...@debian.org>
Changed-By: Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña <j...@debian.org>
Description: 
 samhain    - Data integrity and host intrusion alert system
Closes: 736169 736375
Changes: 
 samhain (3.1.0-5) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * debian/samhainrc: Use 'root@localhost' for SetMailAddress instead of just
     'root' since the basic mailer configuration requires that a domain is
     provided in the RCPT TO.
   * debian/samhain.init: Improve the init script:
     - Do not fail in 'start' if the daemon is already started, use --oknodo
       (Closes: #736375)
     - Do not try to stop the daemon (and wait for it to stop) if it is not 
running
     - If the pidfile has been lost, try to determine the status using the
       process name instead
   * debian/control: Do not require libauparse-dev in kfreebsd (Closes: #736169)
   * debian/rules: update config.{sub,guess} on build if available and restore
     on clean
