Package: watchdog
Version: 5.14-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

I'm somewhat scared to find watchdog fails to start automatically in
jessie due to two bugs that were fixed later. As a result, watchdog
is fairly ususable for me in this distribution since I'll have to start
watchdog manually or by other means after each reboot. This voids the
entire purpose of watchdog: If the box crashes first, I'm stuck.

The fix is fairly simple, please address this for jessie in the next
point release. A debdiff is attached, works for me.

Cheers,
    Christoph
