Package: icecast2
Version: 2.3.2-7
Severity: important
Hello,
when ENABLE=true, configuring icecast results in dpkg keeping hold of
the console and never releasing it.
When doing e.g. "dpkg-reconfigure icecast2", and answering the
questions from debconf, the screen just says:
Stopping icecast2: icecast2.
Starting icecast2: Starting icecast2
Detaching from the console
icecast2.
but apparently the daemon is never detached and dpkg never quits.
I had to temporarily set ENABLE=false and repeat the configuration
stage to work around this problem.
On the other hand, calling "/etc/init.d/icecast2 start" or
"invoke-rc.d icecast2 start" by hand works flawlessly.
Setting severity to important because this can affect system upgrades,
as the package manager never moves on after configuring icecast2.
Any other info available on request.
Cheers,
Gabriele :-)
