[Pkg-ofed-devel] Bug#614043: opensm: no dependency based booting

[Vincent Kersten]

Package: opensm
Version: 3.2.6-20090317-2
Severity: normal


Dear maintainers,

opensm poses some problems:
1. apt-get remove --purge is not possible when there are several instances running on the network and this instance is therefore not started. However, in the PID file there is a processnumber logged, which can not be stopped:

Shutting down opensm on 0x0002c9020029aa2d: start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 3322: No such process
1 pids were not killed
No process in pidfile '/var/run/opensm-0x0002c9020029aa2d' found running; none killed.

invoke-rc.d: initscript opensm, action "stop" failed.
dpkg: warning: subprocess old pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
dpkg - trying script from the new package instead ...

2. startupscript is not ready for depency-based booting


update-rc.d: warning: opensm-boot start runlevel arguments (S) do not match LSB Default-Start values (2 3 4 5)
update-rc.d: warning: opensm-boot stop runlevel arguments (none) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (0 1 6)
 System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/opensm-boot already exist.


To remove the package i start 'tail -f' in another terminal, enter the pid of the 'tail' process in the /var/run/opensm-0x0002c9020029aa2d PID file
and only then i am able to remove/update/upgrade.


Hope this report helps you making opensm integrating better with squeeze, regards,


   Vincent
