Package: ipmitool
Version: 1.8.7-1
Followup-For: Bug #362425
I also had a problem when launching the ipmievd script (after each
upgrade) :
--%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<---
Paramétrage de ipmitool (1.8.7-1) ...
Starting IPMI event daemon ipmievdNo command provided!
Commands:
open Use OpenIPMI for asyncronous notification of events
sel Poll SEL for notification of events
failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript ipmievd, action "start" failed.
dpkg : erreur de traitement de ipmitool (--configure) :
le sous-processus post-installation script a retourné une erreur de sortie
d'état 1
--%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<---
and it seems that it comes from the renaming of the variable
IPMIEVD_OPTS to IPMIEVD_OPTIONS which was not done everywhere in the
/etc/init.d/ipmievd script
(patch included)
