[Bug 1449678] Re: (Vivid) zram-config 0.3 Job for zram-config.service failed

Module not unloading properly (and so stop service failing) is now fixed
(rmmod suppressed the -w option). This doesn't explain why the module is
reloaded even once you removed this package though and I fear this has
nothing to do with this package but via another config.
Maybe the best would be to open a separate bug?
I'm backporting this fix to vivid.

Title:
(Vivid) zram-config 0.3 Job for zram-config.service failed
Status in zram-config package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in zram-config source package in Vivid:
New
Bug description:
[Impact]
* People using some non English locale, zram devices are not loaded
* The service fails to stop and unloading zram module as well
[Test Case]
* Install the new zram-config package
* Reboot and check that the zram devices are created:
$ swapon -s
-> returns some zram devices
* $ sudo systemctl status -l zram-config.service
-> no error
* Stop the service:
$ sudo systemctl stop zram-config.service
* $ sudo systemctl status -l zram-config.service
-> no error
* swapon -s
-> no more zram device listed
[Regression Potential]
* Services loading change may impact English-local user. However, the fix has already been confirmed to be working on wily.
* Stopping the service was already failing on unloading the module, so no additional regression is possible there.

Hi,
While testing how zram-config is going in Ubuntu Vivid, I meet with
error while doing restart and or stop/start.
It seems to stop fine but throws an error when starting again or
performing a restart.
I have installed zram-config 0.3 just today and haven't rebooted yet.
The CPU is "AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 260 Processor"
As stated in bug #1449665 there is one block device created:
$ cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/zram0 partition 947216 0 5
$
Here:
$ sudo systemctl stop zram-config
$ cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/zram0 partition 947216 0 5
$
after the stop, the prompt is back without error, but it has done
nothing.
With restart:
$ sudo systemctl restart zram-config
Job for zram-config.service failed. See "systemctl status zram-config.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
$
When invoking the suggested commands:
****
$ LANG=C systemctl status zram-config.service -l

I have done a test using directly the scripts created for /usr/bin,
the results seem interesting:
$ sudo /usr/bin/end-zram-swapping
rmmod: ERROR: unexpected getopt_long() value 'w'.
$ cat /proc/swaps

$
$ LANG=C sudo /usr/bin/init-zram-swapping
sh: echo: I/O error

/dev/zram1: No such file or directory

$
I hope I have tested the right way. If anything more is needed, log
files or so, please ask.
Best regards,
Mélodie
