[Bug 1755225] [NEW] /etc/network/if-up.d/mythtv-backend.if-up.d is a bad idea

 

Public bug reported:

This file was put in for MythTV0.21 and has never worked (or been
tested) The filename is not valid for run-parts (see the man page) and
so it is not run. I don't want you to fix the name but remove it
altogether. There are much better ways of making mythtv wait for the
network to come up (e.g. systemd) and even if they don't work it is a
really bad idea to just restart the myth backend process just because a
network link has appeared, you could interrupt a recording. Any
replacement for this should check that mythtv has come up and is not
busy first.
