You're right, my sentence sounds like the whole init script was buggy,
but that isn't the case.
The context was about the supposedly "breakage" of the "-u" option
expressed in 55d503b7.7050...@rezozer.net
Sorry, if that offended you!
However I’ll have to find a way not to mess with users who set
the default
chronyd user in the init script instead of using the "user"
directive in
/etc/chrony/chrony.conf. To be honest I don’t see an easy way of
doing it,
so a first good step will probably be to add a "warning" in a NEWS
file.
Note that regular users are not supposed to modify their
/etc/init.d/chrony but
they are supposed to configure properly their
/etc/chrony/chrony.conf .
Sure, but it'd be great to mitigate upgrade issues for those that did
so.
I modify my /etc/init.d/chrony mainly to get /etc/network/if-*.d
support.
BTW, is PPP stuff still needed ?
Yes, there are still Dial-up only internet accesses here and there, but
its
usage dropped significantly in favor of broadband Internet access.
In short, you may rather focus on #312092 and #633422
hth,
