Description Petr Šplíchal 2009-09-14 14:46:57 UTC 
Description of problem:

The bmc-watchdog initscript does not report correct exit status as
specified in the Fedora Initscript Guidelines:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
freeipmi-ipmidetectd-0.7.9-1.fc12.i586

Supplying a non-supported option should result in status 2:
2 invalid or excess argument(s)

FAIL :: Running 'service freeipmi-bmc-watchdog' (Expected 2, got 1)
FAIL :: Running 'service freeipmi-bmc-watchdog nothing' (Expected 2, got 1)

Comment 1 Jan Safranek 2009-10-02 09:48:52 UTC 
My patches were accepted upstream and they should be part of upcoming freeipmi-0.8.1 release.
