Created attachment 1085870 [details] nntpsend patch When systemd runs the innd-nntpsend service, the innxmit processes that get launched by nntpsend get killed by systemd before they are finished. Here's why... The documentation for nntpsend claims that it waits until all of the child innxmit processes exit before it does, but it doesn't. The reason it does not is because it starts the innxmit processes, or more accurately the subshells that start the innxmit processes, in a while loop that is itself in a child process of the main shell, because of this line: cat ${INPUT} | while read SITE HOST SIZE_ARG FLAGS; do Since the while loop is in a pipe, it's executed in a child process. As a result, its child processes, i.e., the ones running innxmit, are not direct children of the nntpsend shell script's process, so it doesn't wait for them. A trivial fix is attached. (Also submitted to the INN maintainers, but given that this bug makes nntpsend completely note work on RHEL, I advise patching it in RHEL quickly rather than waiting for the upstream maintainers to put out a new release with the fix.)
FYI, the INN maintainers say, "Well, many thanks for your comments and the fix. Very much appreciated. It will be included in the next release (INN 2.6.1)."
Could you test this scratch build once it completes? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=12639955
