dphys-config (20090926-1) unstable; urgency=low The behaviour of dphys-config's init.d script and cronjob have been modified: * The init.d script does no more start dphys-config automatically inside a chrooted environment, because while the hostname in a chroot doesn't change, the configuration files you usually want, are different ones. This new behaviour make it possible to install the dphys-config package with debootstrap or xen-create-image from the xen-tools package in automatic installation setups without having to clean up the wrong config files from the newly created host. You can get back the old behaviour (don't check for chroots) by setting START_INSIDE_CHROOT="yes" in /etc/default/dphys-config. * Neither the init.d script nor the default cronjob start dphys-config automatically if no configuration file has been provided since the default values are set in a way that they can't work and the admin has to change them. This new behaviour prevents startup error messages if dphys-config has only been installed for the personal use of users, but not for the maintaining the configuration of the host on which it is being installed. -- Axel Beckert Wed, 03 Jun 2009 20:16:06 +0200
