Description Enrico Scholz 2004-11-13 02:49:27 UTC
Description of problem:

Please move the

|   <!-- Fork into daemon mode -->
|   <fork/>

from /etc/dbus-1/system.conf into the initscript and write

|-    daemon --check $servicename $processname --system
|+    daemon --check $servicename $processname --system --fork

there.


As no option exists to override the '<fork/>' from the configuration file
with a CLI option, the current way conflicts with modern init-methods
like minit which do not fork the services.

Alternatively, the configuration file could be marked with
'%config(noreplace)' or a '--nofork' option be added.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

dbus-0.22-12

Comment 1 Harald Hoyer 2004-11-15 12:34:49 UTC
reassigning to dbus

Comment 2 John (J5) Palmieri 2004-11-23 16:45:02 UTC
This is done upstream with the --nofork option.
