Package: daemonlogger Version: 1.2.1-5 Priority: minor Tags: patch upstream
The README file of daemonlogger, as well as the Packages' description claim that the rollover size for package captures is 1 GB but, actually, the source code denies this: 1386 signal(SIGTERM, quitter); if(errno!=0) errno=0; 1387 signal(SIGINT, quitter); if(errno!=0) errno=0; 1388 signal(SIGQUIT, quitter); if(errno!=0) errno=0; 1389 signal(SIGHUP, restarter); if(errno!=0) errno=0; 1390 signal(SIGALRM, dl_shutdown); if(errno!=0) errno=0; 1391 1392 rollsize = 2*GIGABYTE; 1393 As you can see, rollsize is set 2GB. It is only set to 1GB when an incorrect rollsize is defined. To fix these inconsistencies, please find the attached patch (some of its contents have already been submitted upstream). The patch: - makes the information in debian/control a lit vague since rollover size can be adjusted by the command line options - introduces a patch to fix the inconsistency in the source - modifies the README file to indicate that the rollover size is 2 GB Hopefully you will find this patch useful. If so, please include it in your next package upload. Regards Javier
