Description of problem: In a recent F16 update, libguestfs pulled in zfs-fuse as a dependency, so I noticed the following problem. zfs-fuse's %post scriptlet does this: if [ $1 = 1 ] ; then echo "Initial install. Starting service" /sbin/chkconfig --add zfs-fuse /sbin/service zfs-fuse start >/dev/null 2>&1 || : fi Starting of services is not allowed by the packaging guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SysVInitScript#Why_don.27t_we.... start the service after installation? Installations can be in changeroots, in an installer context, or in other situations where you don't want the services started. In addition, it is unusual for Fedora packages' scriptlets to echo informational messages. Please prefer standard forms of scriptlets as described in the guidelines. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): zfs-fuse-0.6.9-8.20100709git.fc15.x86_64
Just wanted to add that the fact that zfs-fuse starts the service as part of the package install... it breaks my Fedora 16 remix building with livecd-creator. Watching the packages install during the remix build I see: Installing: zfs-fuse ################### [1008/2002] Initial install. Starting service I have to manually kill zfs-fuse after it gets started in the livecd-creator chroot or the remix fails. Please fix. Thanks.
Looking at the changelog for zfs-fuse it is obvious that the packager was aware of this issue in the past and fixed it but it got back in somehow. From the changelog: * Sat Dec 26 2009 Uwe Kubosch <uwe> - 0.6.0-5 - Removed chckconfig on and service start commands from install script See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SysVInitScript#Why_don.27t_we
I got an email from Uwe Kubosch (the package maintainer for zfs-fuse) and was told that he (or she?) wasn't using zfs-fuse anymore... and was looking for someone to take over package maintenance... and had one candidate so far.
Does anyone have status on this? It's been over 45 days since the last update and I just ran into this myself. Is someone else interested in maintaining the package?
I'm working on this and the FTBFS, if you can get Uwe to orphan it I'll take it.
I'm game. I'll have to look up how to orphan a package. Feel free to point me in the right direction.

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/zfs-fuse Log in with your FAS account, click orphan on each branch. Then let me know, and I'll take ownership.
Done. Go ahead! Happy packaging!
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Taken, thanks!
