Severity: normal
In order to disable the "repeat" feature, you need not to pass -R
option to gpm. Using "none" as repeat_type (as stated by the debconf
template) cause gpm to exit with error level.
Please correct the debconf template suggesting to leave the field blank
in order to not activate the repeat feature (preferred solution, imo) or
apply the following patch to /etc/init.d/gpm.
$ diff -u /etc/init.d/gpm.orig /etc/init.d/gpm

Changes:
gpm (1.19.6-15) unstable; urgency=medium
.
[ Peter Samuelson ]
* gpm.config: Fix (harmless) warning if gpm.conf doesn't exist.
* gpm.postrm: move debhelper stuff to the beginning of the script.
Seems to work around debconf weirdness that causes an error exit.
(Closes: #266942)
* gpm.init: make "repeat_type=none" do what the debconf template
says it does. Thanks to Gian Piero Carrubba. (Closes: #266841)
* gpm.prerm: rewrite stop_gpm() to fix 3 bugs and improve readability:
- space after \ line continuation char
- 'gpm -x' should be 'gpm -k'
- return success, not failure, if the daemon wasn't running
(Closes: #266937)
* gpm.postinst: only set up /dev/mouse if it doesn't already exist.
It should not ever be needed anyway, and breaks the occasional
config. Also teach it about repeat_type=none and multi-level
device names like /dev/input/mice. (Closes: #266983)
* gpm.init: minor UI issues:
- print newlines after errors on start / stop targets
- if stop failed on restart, do not bother to 'sleep 3'
- propagate start failure on restart
* gpm.templates: Reword gpm/restart so as not to imply that the user
*is* necessarily in X. We actually do not know this at the time.
.
[ Guillem Jover ]
* Switched to ucf, so no more user configuration changes trashed on
update. (Closes: #266822)
* Removed debconf question about fixing an old bogus gpm.conf file
generated with gpmconfig.
.
[ Joshua Kwan ]
* Add Peter Samuelson to uploaders.
* Remove unused 'read' patch, and 'sources' file.
* Make the long descriptions a little clearer.
* Handle case where ucf is not available in the postrm by testing for its
existence first.
