Bug#640117: pmud and monit conflict

2011-09-11 Thread schmitz

reassign 640117 monit
thank you

monit should not reuse an initscript path name that is already in use by 
another package.

Package: pmud
Severity: normal

If pmud and monit are both installed, the scripts in /etc/init.d
conflict. This may be related to bug #590591?
  
Likely not - but it would be helpful if you could post the message you 
get from dpkg if you attempt to install both packages.

This stops the configuration and installation of other daemons (e.g.
prevented update of cupsd) because the system reports a loop of depth 2
for pmud and depth 1 for monit. I assume this is a bug in pmud because
it lacks LSB headers etc. (#590591) whereas monit does not but this
assumption might (obviously) be mistaken.

Removing pmud does not resolve the issue. Only purging allows e.g.
upgrade of cupsd to proceed correctly.
  

That's normal in such a case. config files are only removed on a purge.

I have reassigned the bug to the monit package as their use of a file 
provided by pmud appears to be in error.


Cheers,

 Michael Schmitz
