[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: openrc
Version: 0.45.2-2
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: e697e365587869@beaconmessenger.com

Dear Maintainer,

When writing an init script with the openrc-run interpreter, and the
start-stop-daemon supervisor (used by default),
you cannot pass options such as 'output_log' and 'error_log',
because the Debian version of start-stop-daemon is incompatible with the
start-stop-daemon version from Gentoo.
openrc-run tries to pass options to start-stop-daemon that are known in
Gentoo,
but not understood by Debian's start-stop-daemon.

in this case, '--stdout' and '--stderror'. The Gentoo's start-stop-daemon
'--stderror' option has no equivalent in Debian,
the '--stdout' option can be replaced with '-O' or '--output'.
the same problem can be observed when using other options.
here is the complete list:
'output_log' (can be replaced with '--output' in Debian)
'error_log' (has no equivalent in Debian)
'output_logger' (has no equivalent in Debian)
'error_logger' (has no equivalent in Debian)
'capabilities' (has no equivalent in Debian)
For example, service 'myservice' with 'output_log=/var/log/myservice.log':

$ rc-service myservice start

Starting myservice ...

start-stop-daemon: unrecognized option "--stdout"

Try "start-stop-daemon --help" for more information.

Failed to start myservice

ERROR: myservice failed to start


I did not submit this bug to the Debian BTS because Debian has officially
switched to systemd
and I doubt that this bug report will be noticed there.

Version: 0.52.1-1

I have uploaded openrc 0.52.1-1 to Debian which addresses this by warning about
and ignoring openrc-run options that are incompatible with src:dpkg's
start-stop-daemon.
