Bug#991481: unblock: openntpd/1:6.2p3-4.2 (pre-approval)

[Baptiste Beauplat]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: ***@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Dear release team, this is a request for pre-approval of an openntpd
upload.

[ Reason ]

Openntpd makes networking configuration fail when running its if-up
hook.

https://bugs.debian.org/987321

The upload would fix this issue by checking if openntpd is running
before restarting it. Openntpd depending on systemd network target, it
would be skipped on boot but correctly executed on ifdown/ifup.

[ Impact ]

High: this bug is effectively holding the boot sequence to the
networking service timeout (5 minutes) and preventing any interfaces
after the first one to be configured.

[ Tests ]

Autopkgtest is superficial.

I've manually tested the fix in both systemd and sysv setup. I've
validated that the patch fixes the booting issue and that openntpd
restart on interface reconfiguration (if already started).

[ Risks ]

Low: the changeset is quite small and self-contained. This is a non-key
leaf package. It has a popcorn of ~1350.

[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing

[ Other info ]

This is an NMU. On approval, I'll upload with DELAY/0.

Bug #991481 [release.debian.org] unblock: openntpd/1:6.2p3-4.2 (pre-approval)
Changed Bug title to 'unblock: openntpd/1:6.2p3-4.2' from 'unblock: openntpd/1:6.2p3-4.2 (pre-approval)'.

Control: retitle -1 unblock: openntpd/1:6.2p3-4.2

Asking for a pre-approval on a trivial 3 line targeted RC fix doesn't
seems like a good use of the release team's time. I've uploaded the fix to
unstable and I'm converting this bug into a standard unblock.

Sorry for the waste of time.
