avahi-daemon doesn't have init script since v0.8-8

I use Devuan 5 daedalus/ceres with repository:

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged daedalus main non-free contrib

Today I've got update:

The following packages will be upgraded:
   avahi-autoipd (0.8-7 => 0.8-8)
   avahi-daemon (0.8-7 => 0.8-8)
   avahi-utils (0.8-7 => 0.8-8)

and I saw

Removing obsolete conffile /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon ...

Here is that I found: https://tracker.debian.org/news/1417862 … -unstable/.

Probably it is time to do a Devuan fork of this package.

Try this in /etc/init.d/avahi:

#!/bin/sh
# Generated by sysd2v v0.3  --  http://www.trek.eu.org/devel/sysd2v
# kFreeBSD do not accept scripts as interpreters, using #!/bin/sh and sourcing.
if [ true != "$INIT_D_SCRIPT_SOURCED" ] ; then
    set "$0" "$@"; INIT_D_SCRIPT_SOURCED=true . /lib/init/init-d-script
fi
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:       avahi-daemon dbus-org.freedesktop.Avahi
# Required-Start: $remote_fs
# Required-Stop:  $remote_fs
# Default-Start:  2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:   0 1 6
# Description:    Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD Stack
### END INIT INFO
DAEMON=/usr/bin/avahi-daemon
DAEMON_ARGS="-s"
PIDFILE=/var/run/avahi-daemon-sysd2v.pid
START_ARGS="--background --make-pidfile"

do_reload_cmd_override ()
{
  /usr/bin/avahi-daemon -r || return 2
}

do_reload ()
{
  log_daemon_msg "Reloading $DESC configuration files" "$NAME"
  MAINPID=$(cat $PIDFILE)
  do_reload_cmd_override
  log_end_msg $?
}

Enable the service with

# update-rc.d avahi defaults

Disclaimer: untested.

If it works it could be added to the orphan-sysvinit-scripts package.

Re: avahi-daemon doesn't have init script since v0.8-8

Hi,

scripts for avahi-daemon and avahi-dnsconfd have been added
to the latest orphan-sysvinit-scripts version (0.13)
