[Bug 1559468] Re: Missing single-quote in watchdog.service prevents service from working correctly

[Martin Pitt]

Hello Michael, or anyone else affected,

Accepted watchdog into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/watchdog/5.14-3ubuntu0.16.04.1 in a
few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

Title:
  Missing single-quote in watchdog.service prevents service from working
  correctly

Status in watchdog package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in watchdog source package in Vivid:
  Won't Fix
Status in watchdog source package in Wily:
  In Progress
Status in watchdog source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in watchdog source package in Yakkety:

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Users with the watchdog package installed.

  [Test case]
  Start the watchdog service.

  [Regression Potential]
  None; this fixes an obvious failure case, where modules may not be loaded to support the watchdog functionality. The package is nearly useless without this.

  The ExecStartPre command should have a single-quote at the end to
  close the opening single-quote, but it does not.  This patch fixes the
  problem.
