log_daemon_msg() is a function from /lib/lsb/init-functions file, which apt-proxy init script uses.
There should be : . /lib/lsb/init-functions at the somewhere at the beginning of /etc/init.d/apt-proxy file. Is this still an issue for you? ** Changed in: apt-proxy (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Needs Info -- [Dapper] apt-proxy spits out error "log_daemon_msg: command not found" https://launchpad.net/bugs/36697 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
