[Bug 496422] Re: cachefilesd not starting with CONFIG_CACHEFILES=y

[Christian Kujau]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: cachefilesd
  
  I've compiled a custom kernel and /etc/init.d/cachefilesd won't start:
  
  # service cachefilesd start
-  * Starting FilesCache daemon  cachefilesd
+  * Starting FilesCache daemon  cachefilesd
  FATAL: Module cachefiles not found.
  Failed to load fscache module,
  
  The initscript tries to "modrobe cachefiles" (but erroneously complains about the "fscache module", which is another module), which is compiled statically in my kernel:
  CONFIG_FSCACHE=y
  CONFIG_CACHEFILES=y
  CONFIG_NFS_FSCACHE=y
  
- Manually starting cachefilesd works fine. I'm not sure that initscripts
+ Manually starting cachefilesd works fine. I'm not sure if initscripts
  should struggle with modules at all. E.g. /etc/init.d/networking doesn't
  load NIC modules too. Think about the module madness /etc/init.d/lm-
  sensors would have to perform.
  
  # grep -ilr modprobe /etc/init.d/
  /etc/init.d/powernowd
  /etc/init.d/cachefilesd.ubuntu
  
  As long as /etc/modules is not obsolete, I think the modprobe stuff can
  be left out of /etc/init.d/cachefilesd and therefore I propose the
  attached patch.
