Package: libc6
Version: 2.9-3
Severity: normal
After acknowledging the latest glibc upgrade, libc6 spits out a warning
message:
Preparing to replace libc6 2.7-18 (using .../g/glibc/libc6_2.9-3_i386.deb) ...
Checking for services that may need to be restarted...
Checking init scripts...
WARNING: init script for xscreensaver not found.
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...
Well, that's expected because xscreensaver doesn't have an init script.
I had to deal with xscreensaver in libpam for the etch->lenny upgrade; you
may find the following snippets useful:
preinst:
. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl 0.99.10.0; then
db_version 2.0
if pidof xscreensaver xlockmore >/dev/null; then
db_input critical libpam-modules/disable-screensaver || true
db_go || true
fi
fi
templates:
Template: libpam-modules/disable-screensaver
Type: error
Description: xscreensaver and xlockmore must be restarted before upgrading
One or more running instances of xscreensaver or xlockmore have been
detected on this system. Because of incompatible library changes, the
upgrade of the libpam-modules package will leave you unable to
authenticate to these programs. You should arrange for these programs
to be restarted or stopped before continuing this upgrade, to avoid
locking your users out of their current sessions.
A number of translations of this template are also available, feel free to
pluck them from the source package.
