Package: ipmiutil
Version: 2.9.6-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When installing ipmiutil, the configure step fails.
`systemctl status ipmi_port.service` shows
Aug 21 15:39:08 medusa systemd[1]: ipmi_port.service: control process
exited, code=exited status=6
Aug 21 15:39:08 medusa systemd[1]: Failed to start ipmiutil ipmi_port
service.
Aug 21 15:39:08 medusa systemd[1]: Unit ipmi_port.service entered failed
state.
The culprit is line 40 of /usr/share/ipmiutil/ipmiutil.setup (note IPORTMAP)
dpc=`getpid dpcproxy`
if [ "x${dpc}" != "x" ]
then
echo "dpcproxy is already running on port 623, so not needed."
retval=6
else
# portmap may have been replaced by portreserve
[ -x $IPORTMAP ] || exit 6
retval=0
fi
IPORTMAP is set in /usr/share/ipmiutil/ipmiutil.env
IPORTMAP=/etc/init.d/portmap
/usr/share/ipmiutil/ipmiutil.setup is the only instance I could find of
IPORTMAP being used.
portmap was replaced with rpcbind quite the while ago. I don't know if the fix
is as simple as
IPORTMAP=/etc/init.d/rpcbind
or if some wider integration needs to happen.
