[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#525185: bad xinetd message during swat installation

[Graham Cobb]

Package: swat
Version: 2:3.3.3-1
Severity: minor

During installation of swat, the following message is output:

--------- IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR XINETD USERS ----------
The following line will be added to your /etc/inetd.conf file:

swat\t\tstream\ttcp\tnowait.400\troot\t/usr/sbin/tcpd\t/usr/sbin/swat

If you are indeed using xinetd, you will have to convert the
above into /etc/xinetd.conf format, and add it manually. See
/usr/share/doc/xinetd/README.Debian for more information.
Suggested entry (automatically converted using itox):

service swatttstreamttcptnowait.400troott
{
        type            = RPC
        rpc_version     = usr/sbin/tcpdt/usr/sbin/swat
Line 1: socket type missing 
-----------------------------------------------------------

The xinetd output has clearly got very confused about the tabs.

I do not know if this is a samba packaging bug or an itox bug but I have 
reported it against samba as it clearly causes a problem during the swat
installation.
