Bug#307928: Alias /twiki/data /var/lib/twiki/data in apache.conf

[Christopher Huhn]

Package: twiki
Version: 20040902-3
Severity: normal
Defining an alias for data/ in apache.conf is pointless IMHO.
Additionally it reveals the raw contents of the topics to everyone, 
by-passing TWiki's access control. This may also be a security
issue.

Bug#296461: UpgradeTwiki upgrade script not present/working : fix setlib.cfg

If you are using a Debian package, you should not be updating things
in place. dpkg will be rightfully upset if you change an installed
package behind its back. 

It's about upgrading the data (i.e. the standard set of pages, the
preferences, the templates, all kind of stuff that twiki uses in order
to work well, beyond the scripts).
/var/lib/twiki/templates is correctly managed by dpkg and there 
shouldn't be an automatic merge of local changes for the standard set of 
files.
Instead of changes to these files one should have set up a custom skin.

For the debian package UpgradeTwiki should not handle anything but 
/var/lib/twiki/data/... and the conffiles (that's all it does I think).
That should be ok with dpkg as it does not manage /var/lib/twiki/data/...

But anyways, this will require a human intervention at all
cases... and a bit of understanding of a diff/merge tool.
 

What's wrong about running it from postinst on upgrade?
Regards,
   Christopher

Bug#297935: partimage-server: init script does nothing if run_on_boot=false

[Christopher Huhn]

Package: partimage-server
Version: 0.6.4-10.1
Severity: normal


Choosing not to run partimaged on boot seems to set launch=0 in 
/etc/default/partimage-server. 
This causes /etc/init.d/partimage-server to be completely useless even when 
starting the service manually.

Instead postinst should skip creating (or remove) runlevel links to 
/etc/init.d/partimage-server.

Bug#297935: Further observations

[Christopher Huhn]

The init script should be called /etc/init.d/partimage-server, not 
/etc/init.d/partimaged (see Debian policy 9.3.2)

In contrast to /usr/share/doc/partimage-server/README.Debian.partimaged 
partimaged runs as root not partimag.
You shoud use start-stop-daemon --start --chuid partimag ...

In contrast to /usr/share/doc/partimage-server/README.partimaged 
partimaged listens on port 4025, not 13000

   Christopher

Bug#306829: autofs-ldap: auto.master in LDAP and autofs.schema

[Christopher Huhn, GSI]

Package: autofs-ldap
Version: 4.1.3+4.1.4beta2-7
Severity: important
Tags: patch

/etc/init.d/autofs fails to retrieve the auto.master map from LDAP. The 
attached patch fixes the problem for my setup. 

Additionally it exports LDAPBASE and LDAPURI (see bug #304340), which makes 
autofs-ldap rather independant from the content of 
/etc/ldap/ldap.conf.

One might encounter problems when both RFC 2307 and autofs.schema entries are 
inside the specified subtree.
