[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#780847: puppetmaster: wrong process name match in logrotate script

[Bartosz Cisek]

Package: puppetmaster
Version: 3.7.2-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Logrotate scrpit supplied by puppetmaster package tries to send signal after rotating logs. Unfortunately it matches against process name that doesn't exists. As a result puppet master process doesn't release log file descriptor that grows infinitely.

There is:
    pkill -USR2 -u puppet -f puppetmasterd || true

While it should be:
    pkill -USR2 -u puppet -f "puppet master" || true
