Ok... I think I have sorted it out. The package uses debconf to "manage" the config file but it has a bug regarding the handling of the default value for eventhandler. I made a small change to debian/config that takes care of the problem (hopefully). It basicly sets eventhandler to an empty string in debconf if it reads a @EVENTHANDLER@ from the /etc/smsd.conf
With this patch I have made clean installs and upgrades from both -1 and -1ubuntu0.1 without any problems. ** Attachment added: "patch from ubuntu0.1 to ubuntu0.2" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14022421/smstools_3.0.10-1ubuntu0.2.debdiff ** Changed in: smstools (Ubuntu) Assignee: Peter Magnusson (crippledcanary) => (unassigned) -- smstools stop working after upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224241 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
