Lintian tag: maintainer-script-hides-init-failure
Type: warning
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
This script calls invoke-rc.d to run an init script but then, if the init
script fails, exits successfully (using || exit 0). If the init script
fails, the maintainer script should probably fail.
The most likely cause of this problem is that the package was built with a
debhelper version suffering from Bug#337664 that inserted incorrect
invoke-rc.d code in the generated maintainer script. The package needs to
be reuploaded (could be bin-NMUd, no source changes needed).
