• Bug#1103468: dicod doesn't start properly.

    From Karine =?utf-8?B?Q3LDqXZlY8WTdXI=?=@21:1/5 to All on Fri Apr 18 00:10:03 2025
    Package: dicod
    Version: 2.12-2
    Severity: grave

    Hi,
    Dicod cannot start since version 2.12-1.
    Starting dicod with:
    $ dicod --stderr
    It printed: dicod: Error: /etc/dicod.conf:16.1-39: invalid include statement

    So, I change the line 16 from:
    #include /var/lib/dicod/dictorg-db.list
    to:
    #include </var/lib/dicod/dictorg-db.list>

    I tried to start dicod again:
    $ dicod --stderr
    it printed: dicod: Error: /var/lib/dicod/dictorg-db.list:8.1-60: invalid include statement

    in this file the line 8 is just a comment begining with #:
    # included from the dictd configuration file /etc/dicod.conf
    Apparently, the string "# included" is understood as an include
    statement when it should'nt be.

    So now, I added the strin "q " before "included":
    # q included from the dictd configuration file /etc/dicod.conf


    And finally dicod started with: systemctl start dicod.service

    It seems, there is something broken is the parser of the config file.
    While I found a workaround, it's a bit annoying.

    Cheers.
