Bug#714710: dpkg: when installed from live usb/cd /sbin/start-stop-daemon is empty shell script
Hi thanks Edwin for reporting the details on your side. This is exactly what I have experienced in my case and spent about 4-5h looking for an issue with nfs and why it is not mounting remote dir, why portmap was not running etc. I did check the current 7.x installer debian-7.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso but it looks ok there in the dpkg package. In debian-testing-amd64-businesscard.iso there is no dpkg package. I need to check the backup disks and usb of installation and the notes to find out what I have used for setting up the machine but no time left unfortunately. I think the machine was installed in Feb or Jan this year. @Edwin: Can you check if the included dpkg package has this inside /sbin/start-stop-daemon in binary, basically I'm wondering if there is a script somewhere which overwrites something in /sbin, which would be dangerous I mount -o loop debianiso and then find | grep dpkg followed by mkdir tmp && dpkg -x dpkg...deb tmp regards From: Guillem Jover To: deloptes ; 714...@bugs.debian.org Cc: live-ima...@packages.debian.org Sent: Tuesday, July 2, 2013 11:42 AM Subject: Re: Bug#714710: dpkg: when installed from live usb/cd /sbin/start-stop-daemon is empty shell script Control: reassign -1 live-images Hi!
