Bug#528669: init script failing when specter already running or already stopped

[Rémi Laurent]

Package: specter
Version: 1.4-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Init script returns a non zero status when called to stop / start an
already stopped / started specter daemon.
This has unexcepted behaviour when trying to restart specter or to
uninstall it when daemon is already stopped.

An example output when trying to remove the package and specter daemon
is already stopped:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  specter*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 42 not upgraded.
After this operation, 401kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?

Bug#528701: fluidsynth segfaults when loading the configuration file

[wzab]

Package: fluidsynth
Version: 1.0.8-2
Severity: important

When I try to run fluidsynth letting it to read the configuration from the
file, it segfaults at the first command related to the MIDI router.
If e.g. my config files looks like this:

flsynth.conf:
==
load /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2
load /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GS.sf2
select 1 0 0 52
select 0 0 0 76
router_clear
router_begin note
router_chan 0 127 0 0
router_par1 36 59 1 0
router_end
router_begin note
router_chan 0 127 0 1
router_par1 60 84 1 0
router_end
=
I get the following messages:

=
$fluidsynth -f flsynth.conf 
cca_open_socket: could not connect to host 'localhost', service '14541'
cca_init: could not connect to server 'localhost' - disabling ladcca

I was able to state which instruction caused the fault, by inserting of the
"fonts" command into my config file, and checking, when it stopped to be
executed...

I've forgotten to add, that the commands used in my config file work
perfectly, when entered in the fluidsynth shell.
