vsftpd gives an error when it is uninstalled

warning: file /etc/rc.d/init.d/vsftpd: remove failed: No such file or directory

Seems to be searching for the old init service file to remove and not finding it, but the package does contain one.

# urpmf vsftpd | grep -e init -e service

vsftpd:/etc/avahi/services/vsftpd.service
vsftpd:/etc/rc.d/init.d/vsftpd
vsftpd:/lib/systemd/system/vsftpd.service

Adding you here Giuseppe as you use this program and know a bit about the patch, David too.

I'm adding here the same comment in the other bug:

@claire 
could the init.d file be included in one of the patches introduced for this bug? Maybe there's some inclusion that put the file in the rpm if there isn't one alreaedy?
I'm not very familiar with spec files even if I meddled with them sometimes, but it seems that there's something like this in the spec patch:

 %preun
+if [ -e /etc/init.d/%{name} ]; then
 %stop_on_removal %name
+fi

Maybe the spec file for mageia did not include this check?

Comment 3 David Walser 2013-08-21 14:01:54 CEST

Here's what it has:
%preun
%_preun_service vsftpd
if [ -x /usr/sbin/xinetd ];then
%_post_service xinetd
fi

and what %_preun_service vsftpd runs is:
/usr/share/rpm-helper/del-service vsftpd 0 vsftpd

(assuming you're uninstalling the package...on upgrade when it runs it, the 0 is a 1).

So that _preun_service call is standard for all services.

The updating bit is fine..

# urpmi vsftpd

installing vsftpd-3.0.2-2.1.mga3.x86_64.rpm from /var/cache/urpmi/rpms

                                 ############################


Removing is when it shows the error..

# urpme vsftpd
removing vsftpd-3.0.2-2.1.mga3.x86_64
removing package vsftpd-3.0.2-2.1.mga3.x86_64

It happens with both builds though so isn't a regression introduced with the patch.
