Bug#419818: dbus: Syntax error /etc/init.d/dbus line 57

Package: dbus
Version: 1.0.2-3
Severity: minor


# /etc/init.d/dbus restart
/etc/init.d/dbus: line 57: [: too many arguments
Stopping system message bus: dbus.
Starting system message bus: dbus.
/etc/init.d/dbus: line 57: [: too many arguments

The part that fails is a comparison of a runlevel query that results in "N 2" instead of "2":

+ run-parts --arg=start /etc/dbus-1/event.d
+ dependent_services start
+ '[' '!' -z ']'
/sbin/runlevel
++ /sbin/runlevel
+ r='N 2'
+ '[' N 2 = unknown ']'
/etc/init.d/dbus: line 57: [: too many arguments

Moving r=${r#*\ } to remove the N before the comparison solves my problem, but may not generalize.

Incidentally, I can't tell whether dbus functionality is affected; it may not be.

Dave
