This will change shutdown behaviour for all existing hardy installations, which is too risky in an SRU (it might break things for other people), at least as long as this hasn't been done in any stable release. So if that's the correct fix, it should be applied to jaunty, get widespread testing there, and then be backported.
However, it doesn't look like a "correct" fix to me in the first place. Why should samba hang or not just because the halt init script (which is run *after* any other init script) shuts down network interfaces? It shouldn't hurt at all to keep them up all the time. What kind of network interfaces do you have? does it make a difference when you disconnect it before shutdown? -- Dell 710 Hangs on Shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115906 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
