[Bug 1047722] Re: configure_networking net-DEVICE.conf in /tmp, but upstart job expects /run

[Scott Moser]

as far as I can see now, the only issue is that openiscsi's 'iscsi-network-interface.conf' upstart file
debian/open-iscsi.iscsi-network-interface.upstart

expects the file to be written in /run, but with klibc/ipconfig in
precise it is written to /tmp.


** Summary changed:

- configure_networking net-DEVICE.conf in /run, but ipconfig writes in /tmp
+ configure_networking net-DEVICE.conf in /tmp, but upstart job expects /run

** No longer affects: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)

** No longer affects: klibc (Ubuntu)

** No longer affects: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu Precise)

** No longer affects: klibc (Ubuntu Precise)

** Description changed:

- /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions 's configure_networking
- says:
+ This bug was initially opened with misunderstanding.
+ The issue present is that open-iscsi's upstart job expects ipconfig files to be in /run, but they are written by ipconfig in precise to /tmp.
  
-  # The NIC is to be configured if this file does not exist.
-  # Ip-Config tries to create this file and when it succeds
-  # creating the file, ipconfig is not run again.
-  for x in /run/net-"${DEVICE}".conf /run/net-*.conf ; do
-     [ -e "$x" ] && break 2
-  done
- 
- Ie, it is expecting /run/net-* to be written, but ipconfig in kblic-
- utils in precise is writing that file to /tmp.

- The bug report was collected on quantal, but the above is from precise.  Per slangasek:
- 
-  |  fixed in quantal; seems klibc-utils and initramfs-tools were out of 
-  | sync on this in precise
