Package: dansguardian
Version: 2.10.1.1-1
Severity: important
It is not possible to reload dansguardian dynamically (under the dansguardian
UID) by launching "dansguardian -r" or "dansguardian -g". Both calls end-up
killing dansguardian altogether, with the following errors in syslog:
dansguardian[727]: Content scanner plugin init returned error value: -1
dansguardian[727]: Error loading CS plugins
dansguardian[727]: Error re-parsing the dansguardian.conf file or other
DansGuardian configuration files
There are no errors during the initial startup, which suggests a bug in the
dansguardian reloading mechanism and should probably be forwarded upstream.
Unfortunately, restarting dansguardian via:
/etc/init.d/dansguardian start
requires root privileges due to the creation of /var/run/dansguardian.pid.
Therefore, the user "dansguardian" has no way to automatically update the
blacklists without requiring root privileges to restart the process.
And restarting from scratch is disrupting for users as opposed to reloading,
hence the severity of "important".
