[pkg-fetchmail-maint] Bug#268346: please apply the fix for this bug

[Nagy Gabor]

Hi, I would like to ask why is this bug still open, as there is an easy
fix.

Right now I run fetchmail 6.3.4-1, and the bug is still present.

In /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/fetchmail when the connection comes up, it executes
try-restart, what doesn't work. If I replace it with start, it works.

This is what Xavier wrote two years ago. I always have to replace it by
hand whenever I upgrade the fetchmail package.

I also remember that some years ago the same script has checked if
fetchmail was already started, and if it was, it has called awaken, if it
wasn't it has simply started it.

I think this is the correct way to do things, but the simple start is much
better than the current, broken script. And so far I haven't noticed any
problems with it, even if I bring down my ppp link and then up again there
is no problem with it.

So, please, could you simply replace try-restart with start in the above
mentioned file in the next version, and close this bug?

Cheers,
Gabor
