Package: nsca Version: 2.6-3.2 Severity: serious Hi,
you should add in README.Debian that "dpkg-reconfigure nsca" is needed to install startup links (I discovered it by looking at /var/lib/dpkg/info/nsca.postinst..., not something usual users want to do). README.Debian currently says : "by default nsca works with an init script /etc/init.d/nsca" But it does not say that, by default, symlinks are not installed. [This would be wishlist bug] However, trying to enable nsca, I found a bug: atsina:/etc/init.d# dpkg-reconfigure nsca update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/nsca missing LSB information update-rc.d: see <http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts> Starting Nagios Service Check Acceptor: /usr/sbin/nsca already running. ERROR: could not start nsca. invoke-rc.d: initscript nsca, action "start" failed. atsina:/etc/init.d# Missing LSB headers are already reported. But nsca also fails to return a 0 code when already running: atsina:/etc/init.d# /etc/init.d/nsca start ; echo $? Starting Nagios Service Check Acceptor: /usr/sbin/nsca already running. ERROR: could not start nsca. 1 atsina:/etc/init.d# According to policy 9.3.2 (and recents discussions on debian-devel), starting an already running service or stopping an already stopped service must not return an error code.
