[Bug 306693] Re: open-iscsi upgrade fails to stop iscsid

[Rafael David Tinoco]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. In an effort to keep an
up-to-date and valid list of bugs to work on, I have reviewed this report
to verify it still requires effort and occurs on an Ubuntu release in
standard support, and it does not.

It is unfortunate that we were unable to resolve this defect, however
there appears to be no further action possible at this time. I am
therefore moving the bug to 'Incomplete'. If you disagree or have
new information, we would be grateful if you could please add a comment 
stating why and then change the status of the bug to 'New'.

** Changed in: open-iscsi (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

** Changed in: open-iscsi (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix

Title:
  open-iscsi upgrade fails to stop iscsid

Status in open-iscsi package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: open-iscsi

  On an upgrade from open-iscsi=2.0.865-1ubuntu4 to open-
  iscsi=2.0.870.1-0ubuntu1, the postrm script for 2.0.865-1ubuntu4 stops
  iscsid via the initscript, which fails to to all iscsid processes.
  When apt then tries to run the postinstall script, the init script for
  open-iscsi fails to start due to the existing process.

  Work around is to forcibly kill the iscsid processes before upgrade:
