Package: dbab
Version: 1.3.3-1
Severity: normal
File: /lib/init/dbab-init-d-script

Under the standard "init", attempting to stop dbab with

    /etc/init.d/dbab stop

silently fails to stop the running dbab-svr process.


In /lib/init/dbab-init-d-script, I suspect

    start-stop-daemon --stop ... --exec /usr/sbin/dbab-svr

is no good for a perl script like dbab-svr since the process name is
"perl" rather than /usr/sbin/dbab-svr so the --exec does not match.
I got some joy from removing the --exec bit and letting it stop by the
pidfile, but better double check that.

As to silently failing, I think --quiet should be omitted so at least
when start-stop-daemon doesn't stop for some reason it says so.
