Package: exim4-daemon-light
Version: 4.50-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I installed exim4 replacing my old exim3 configuration, and selected to
convert my config script to v4.
The configuration process of the package above dumped the new exim4
configuration file, then hanged up. The relevant process list was the
following:
14382 pts/33 S+ 0:04 apt-get install exim4 eximon4 exim4-doc-info exim4-doc-html
15165 pts/33 S+ 0:07 /usr/bin/dpkg --configure exim4-config exim4-base libgpg-error0 libgcry
15307 pts/33 S+ 0:07 /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/info/exim4-d
15313 pts/33 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /var/lib/dpkg/info/exim4-daemon-light.postinst configure
15314 pts/33 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d exim4 start
15330 pts/33 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.d/exim4 start
15332 pts/33 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf
15347 pts/33 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf
15348 pts/33 S+ 0:00 sed -e s/DEBCONF[^D][^E][^B].*DEBCONF//g
15349 pts/33 S+ 0:00 grep -E -v ^[[:space:]]*#
15350 pts/33 S+ 0:00 sed -e /^$/N;/\n$/D
Sending SIGHUP to process 15349 resulted:
/usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf: line 250: 15349 Hangup grep -E -v '^[[:space:]]*#'
15350 | sed -e '/^$/N;/\n$/D'
I looked the (possibly generated) /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf, and
(although I didn't checked what it is doing really) I found the following
code, which looks doubtful:
276 sed -e "s/DEBCONF[^D][^E][^B].*DEBCONF//g" \
277 > ${UPEX4C_outputfile}.tmp
278 else
279 cat /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template
280 removecomments | \
281 sed -e "s/DEBCONF[^D][^E][^B].*DEBCONF//g" \
282 > ${UPEX4C_outputfile}.tmp
283 fi
284 mv -f ${UPEX4C_outputfile}.tmp ${UPEX4C_outputfile}
285 chmod ${CFILEMODE} ${UPEX4C_outputfile}
286 [ "${UPEX4C_verbose}" = "yes" ] && \
I suspect that from the end of line 279 the "| \" string is missing.
I hope it was not me who made something silly... Regards:
Ferenc Engard
