It was discussed that the maintainer script should include a very long timeout between stopping and restarting portmap on upgrade for this reason. I don't know if this was implemented; I did argue that unless something like this was implemented, we should not SRU for this issue alone, due to the fact that the SRU itself triggers the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/688550 Title: portmap/statd can not be restarted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/portmap/+bug/688550/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
