[Bug 1587516] Re: Packaging: incorrect /etc/default

[Martin Pitt]

Hello Peter, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ceph into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ceph/10.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 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!

Title:
  Packaging: incorrect /etc/default

Status in ceph package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ceph source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in ceph source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Its not possible to pass environment variables to ceph daemons due to mis-installation of /etc/default/ceph (its a nested dir, not a file).

  [Test Case]
  sudo apt-get install ceph
  ls -la /etc/default/ceph

  [Regression Potential]
  Medium - upgrades, due to nested ceph/ceph are a little complex, but the packaging maintainer scripts should deal with it.

  [Original Bug Report]
  I am running ceph 10.2 on trusty (via upstart). The /etc/default are:

  # ls -la /etc/default/ceph/ceph
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 325 Apr 29 19:54 /etc/default/ceph/ceph

  Is ceph/ceph really intended? The upstart conf has this in it

  # fgrep /etc/default /etc/init/ceph-osd.conf
      test -f /etc/default/ceph && . /etc/default/ceph

  The debian/rules seem to create that dir, fwiw:

   install -d -m0755 debian/ceph-common/etc/default/ceph
   install -m0644 etc/default/ceph debian/ceph-common/etc/default/ceph

  # apt-cache policy ceph
