Hi,

This is IMO a missconfiguration, not a bug. Closing accordingly.

  Hi Thomas,

Thanks, although, isn't it still a bug if it arrived at a misconfigured 
state without user interaction?


Indeed. Please see the debconf thingy as only a helper to get a first 
configuration in. If for a reason, the system has change state, there's 
not much the package can do without user manual configuration.


Cheers,

 Hi Thomas,

I don't think it'd be such a great idea. I prefer let the user do what 
they feel is correct.


FYI, it's also possible for interfaces being renamed from one udev 
version to the next. IMO, that's a case for filling a bug against udev, 
not minissdpd.

Bug#1033479: minissdpd: Service fails to start on boot with "Error parsing address/mask..."

2023-06-01 Thread Jonathan Dowland 

I've hit something similar. In my case the error in the logs is

Mar 07 17:59:33 phobos minissdpd-systemd-wrapper[1302]: Error parsing 
address/mask (or interface name) : enp3s0
Mar 07 17:59:33 phobos minissdpd-systemd-wrapper[1302]: can't parse 
"enp3s0" as a valid address or interface name

and my /etc/default/minissdpd contained

MiniSSDPd_INTERFACE_ADDRESS="enp3s0"

Likewise, I have not edited that file myself. I guess it was populated
by the debconf template[1]

It was probably correct at the time I installed minissdpd (which I did
transitively: and as such I'm not very familiar with what it does or how
it works, since it's a dependency package of something else) and has
become incorrect later on, as I've moved enp3s0 onto a bridge interface.

My fix (the inverse of yours I guess) is to substitute 


MiniSSDPd_INTERFACE_ADDRESS="br0"

In the config file.

But I suggest to the maintainer (Hi Thomas!): If you're confident that
you can guess the right interface at install time, why not do that at
service start up time instead? That way it will adjust to changing
environments.

Bug#1033479: minissdpd: Service fails to start on boot with "Error parsing address/mask..."

2023-03-25 Thread Facundo Gaich 
Package: minissdpd
Version: 1.6.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The minissdpd service fails on boot with the following:

If I try to start it manually after boot it succeeds:

Note that it now worked for the docker0 and enp2s0 infterfaces, so
apparently the error on boot is because it can't find a single correct 
interface. The
bridge and veth interfaces are not configured anymore in my system, not
sure how they were added to /etc/default/minissdpd
