[Bug 1287624] Please test proposed package

[Chris J Arges]

Hello Sami, or anyone else affected,

Accepted munge into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/munge/0.5.11-1ubuntu1.1 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:
  Munged does not start

Status in munge package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in munge source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in munge source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  ===================
  on 16.04 LTS:
  $ sudo apt-get install munge

  (without the fix, the install fails because it attempts to start the
  service in the package's postinst.)

  on 14.04 LTS
  $ sudo apt-get install munge
  $ sudo /usr/sbin/create-munge-key
  $ sudo service restart munge

  (the service restart will fail if unfixed)

  Regression Potential
  ====================
  Patch is from the upstream author of munge, regressions introduced by the patch itself would have been seen there. Test packages were confirmed to address the issue. 

  Original bug report
  ===================
  Munge daemon does not start in ubuntu 14.04 beta.

  sudo service munge start
   * Starting MUNGE munged                                                 [fail]
  munged: Error: Logfile is insecure: group-writable permissions set on "/var/log"

  /var/log permissions are (I have not changed them in any way):
  drwxrwxr-x 13 root syslog 4,0K maali  4 06:40 log

  However, I can start munge manually by running "sudo munged -f", which
  runs the daemon despite warnings.
