Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From: Radim Kolar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2000 13:30:28 +0100 Package: debian-policy Version: 2.5.0.0 In section 3.3.2. is not clear what 'restart' does. 1. restart=stop and start or 2. if service is running, stop it and start it, when is not running, do not start it. Better is to define new standard as found in some packages: restart=method 2 force-restart=method 1 This helps system administrators to writing their crontabs scripts, which needs to restart the service without check if service is really running. When service was stopped by sysadmin (for example for saving system resources) is not good idea to restart it by cron's daily scripts. --------------------------------------- Received: (at 60979-close) by bugs.debian.org; 10 Mar 2003 19:33:21 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Mar 10 13:33:20 2003 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from auric.debian.org [206.246.226.45] (mail) by master.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.12 1 (Debian)) id 18sT1U-0006TQ-00; Mon, 10 Mar 2003 13:33:20 -0600 Received: from troup by auric.debian.org with local (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 18sSgW-0005n0-00; Mon, 10 Mar 2003 14:11:40 -0500 From: Manoj Srivastava <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Katie: lisa $Revision: 1.21 $ Subject: Bug#60979: fixed in debian-policy 3.5.9.0 Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sender: James Troup <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2003 14:11:40 -0500 Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of debian-policy, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive: debian-policy_3.5.9.0.dsc to pool/main/d/debian-policy/debian-policy_3.5.9.0.dsc debian-policy_3.5.9.0.tar.gz to pool/main/d/debian-policy/debian-policy_3.5.9.0.tar.gz debian-policy_3.5.9.0_all.deb to pool/main/d/debian-policy/debian-policy_3.5.9.0_all.deb A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is attached.

Josip: * Added missing bits of information about Description: fields from the old Packaging manual, closes: #172022 * Fixed a stale reference to the "base system maintainer" to base-passwd maintainer, closes: #174927 * Fixed an accidental change from /usr/share/package to /usr/share/doc in the paragraph about not depending on /usr/share/doc/package, closes: #174048 * Fixed several errors reported by Guenther Palfinger, with some help from Richard Braakman, closes: #177205, #177206, #177207, #177208, #177209 * Added versions to links and docbook-xml source-dependencies, hopefully fixes the bug with potato, and even if it doesn't, I don't care :) closes: #103459 * Fixed typos in the debconf spec noticed by Jay Bonci, closes: #178455 * Clarified that using Build-Depends for build-dependencies is not a "may" but a "should", added proper linking among various sections dealing with the dependencies so that there is no confusion, closes: #87510 If any one of those poor, misguided people ;) still thinks that the requirement should be a "must" (in _our_ meaning, not RFC "MUST"), please file a new bug, as it's quite unproductive to have to sift through a 152-page bug log which mostly goes back-and-forth with explanations how policy should work, occasionally sprinkled with offtopic stuff, too. * When asked to restart a service that isn't already running, the init script should start it, closes: #60979 * Rephrased section on configuration files to remove confusing use of "should", closes: #170019 * Rearranged the shared library information properly, closes: #109166 This change also centralizes the info on how to ship static libraries in one place (hopefully not too ambiguous), closes: #93975 * Allow examples to be placed in /usr/share/doc/package/ in packages that are meant to provide examples, closes: #69864 * Removed several references to the Policy manual etc in the stuff imported from old packaging manual, closes: #181923 * Fixed too greedy wildcard match in the logrotate example, closes: #183544 Files: c681573847ca95f0a8290957aaea7a36 833 doc optional debian-policy_3.5.9.0.dsc 7111f544864e257532b3ed1bca84ee0f 572699 doc optional debian-policy_3.5.9.0.tar.gz 40a7998a2cd2a7450562e7043fefadb0 609728 doc optional debian-policy_3.5.9.0_all.deb 6d3fe9ffc9bdddd1950b5949ecf7fc86 95043 byhand - policy.txt.gz bf03d5508abc7273970e3fe2d5edcbbc 2118 byhand - menu-policy.txt.gz e2515b142d71ad7841f2a44cfe15cc22 1560 byhand - mime-policy.txt.gz 3b2b8b544f7c1d0b700b5f0638ad023c 4496 byhand - policy-process.txt.gz 53d59d382f2cca63440a7cb88d945da2 4424 byhand - perl-policy.txt.gz 8f37c6c419260b2502e8d8ab5fce3ea9 105217 byhand - policy.html.tar.gz 2ccd5b318e61304a1afc07d5a1cd01be 2724 byhand - menu-policy.html.tar.gz f9f5ac8b0239f8fead8f6b26640c65ea 2143 byhand - mime-policy.html.tar.gz 892413f781d93a366ef22508c2e4102b 5191 byhand - policy-process.html.tar.gz d7b73a28044fa30aa5facb232dc002f6 5794 byhand - perl-policy.html.tar.gz aab901eeedcd23ae6d56c91ede2649eb 6363 byhand - debconf_specification.txt.gz a2c4b60651949b84c4ad2b8f74df3cc2 35535 byhand - debconf_specification.html 3ed7aa5a489834b24bb28ff377a34aa9 10982 byhand - libc6-migration.txt 7c6c1d1be799f750ad8085e0d3eecad8 9288 byhand - virtual-package-names-list.txt 3079b137ed179f5ceb8dd845867621c5 210466 byhand - policy.ps.gz 8a54af210e6cff6c85c98e7f84a1a3f0 435238 byhand - policy.pdf.gz 58e0adf3c1aff158d12b1d686b82ebee 18890 byhand - upgrading-checklist.txt 93679f707ec4cbc94b6f667afb1f2600 34997 byhand - fhs-2.1.html.tar.gz 02153a8048e28d94dd72c0cbcf0c1816 98312 byhand - fhs.txt -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+aPbEIbrau78kQkwRAqEEAJ0VPXWeSlp7ARD3N/hX5WjVuW2hfwCfVeP0 XZ3hFwBOUsv1vHlj6C4O8Yc= =g488 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
