[Piuparts-devel] Bug#440183: this can be done now, arer there more use cases?

[Holger Levsen]

Hi,

c09c4741695b52017a6126fd77a9f9fcccd468bc and the following 5 commits show how 
to tests packages which need a (certain) database running, so this has 
(partly) been done now:

1ca8406 p.conf.*: enable --allow-database
b1d5523 upgrade mysql/postgresql separately
747e9cd new script: pre_install_database-server
25a30e3 detect_piuparts_issues: failures to start a database server
2f24a32 p: relax the check for running processes for --allow-database
c09c474 p: new option --allow-database

The general usecase however is not possible yet, maybe with --enable-
daemon=$damon-script (where $daemonscript is one of mysql, postgresqld or 
postgresql-8.3 in that patch) or maybe as --no-check-for-running-processes, 
not sure.

I was about to close this bug (as the most pressing use case, enable data 
bases, is covered), and then decided to go to bed now and to look again 
tomorrow.


cheers,
	Holger
