Package: pxe Version: 1.4.2-3 Severity: grave Justification: breaks system upgrades
The pxe daemon fails to start when there still is a stray pid file in /var/run. Incidentially, it also fails to remove the pid file when stopped. In combination, pxe is unusable after an upgrade until the old pid file is manually removed. I noticed during the recent upgrade to 1.4.2-4, which means that the bug must have been introduced in -3. # ls -l /var/run/pxe.pid ls: /var/run/pxe.pid: No such file or directory # invoke-rc.d pxe start Starting pxe: pxe. # invoke-rc.d pxe stop Stopping pxe: pxe. # invoke-rc.d pxe start Starting pxe: invoke-rc.d: initscript pxe, action "start" failed. # rm /var/run/pxe.pid # invoke-rc.d pxe start Starting pxe: pxe.
