Description Thorsten Kukuk 2005-09-06 10:18:07 UTC 
The haldaemon init script has checks, if hal is already running.
This checks and the return value are not LSB conform, which leads to ugly
and wrong error messages (fails) during installation.
Comment 1 Thorsten Kukuk 2005-09-06 10:19:07 UTC 
The same is true for dbus.
Comment 2 Danny Al-Gaaf 2005-09-06 10:36:52 UTC 
Whats is exactly wrong? Any proposal for a change?
Comment 3 Thorsten Kukuk 2005-09-06 10:45:14 UTC 
From the init.d/skeleton script (or look at LSB spec):

"# Note that starting an already running service, stopping
# or restarting a not-running service as well as the restart
# with force-reload (in case signaling is not supported) are
# considered a success."

But if hal and dbus are running, the scripts reports an error.
Comment 4 Danny Al-Gaaf 2005-09-06 10:56:40 UTC 
You mean in hal start script if you use "rchal start" and hal is already 
running? I fix this for the next package.
Comment 5 Danny Al-Gaaf 2005-09-06 18:23:22 UTC 
I fixed this also for dbus-1 and submitted both packages. Close the bug now.
