Bug#627917: kdm: Default KDM config file doesn't halt

Package: kdm
Version: 4:4.6.2-2
Severity: important

Hi.

The default configuration file for KDM contains the following:

[Shutdown]
# The command (subject to word splitting) to run to halt the system.
# Default is /sbin/shutdown -p now
#HaltCmd=
# The command (subject to word splitting) to run to reboot the system.
# Default is /sbin/shutdown -r now
#RebootCmd=


However, this doesn't properly shutdown. According to shutdown manpage, the
proper switch should be -P, not -p. I think that former default values were:

[Shutdown]
BootManager=None
HaltCmd=/sbin/halt
RebootCmd=/sbin/reboot

I can't confirm, but this was in my kdmrc.dpkg-old, and I think I had the
default. Changing to use halt and reboot worked for me, but I don't know if is
a problem in shutdown instead (sorry if it's the case).

Thank you.

Bug#627917: kdm: Default KDM config file doesn't halt

 Hi.
 
 The default configuration file for KDM contains the following:
 
 [Shutdown]
 # The command (subject to word splitting) to run to halt the system.
 # Default is /sbin/shutdown -p now
 #HaltCmd=
 # The command (subject to word splitting) to run to reboot the system.
 # Default is /sbin/shutdown -r now
 #RebootCmd=
 
 
 However, this doesn't properly shutdown. According to shutdown manpage, the
 proper switch should be -P, not -p. I think that former default values were:

When reading the manpage, it seems -h is the correct switch. Without -h or -r
the system goes to runlevel 1.

-P just changes the default halt action.

In any case, it is fixed upstream (I think in 4.6.3) with the following patch:
http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kde-workspace.gita=commitdiffh=bb7b6885bc91d698f1d57bbf9e08bd985e34215e

So they chose: /sbin/shutdown -h -P now

Regards
