Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: zoneminder
Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
Zoneminder 1.24.2-5ubuntu1
Worked fine in early ubuntu versions. But after mysql start was ported
to upstart zoneminder dependencies are not working anymore.
ZoneMinder expects to connect to a database, usually @localhost. If
mysql delays to start, zoneminder exits and should be restarted
manually. Too bad for a security related software.
If Zonaminder keeps mysql-server as a dependency for installing it
should have mysqld as a dependency for startup. Currently zoneminder is
starting from sysvinit and mysql from upstart so polite dependencies are
not possible.
Attached is my quick and dirty workaround.
