Bug#36867: hwtools: /etc/rc.boot/hwtools mentions two programs not on PATH
Package: hwtools
Version: 0.3-4
/etc/rc.boot/hwtools mentions irqtune, but irqtune is not on the PATH,
it is in /usr/lib/hwtools. hwtools should be modified to call
/usr/lib/hwtools/irqtune or (better, I think) a small wrapper script
should be installed in /sbin, something like
-----------------------------
#!/bin/sh
/usr/lib/hwtools/irqtune "$@"
-----------------------------
In addition, /etc/rc.boot/hwtools mentions hdparm, which may not be
installed as part of the hwtools package. Mention of hdparm should
be removed from /etc/rc.boot/hwtools and moved to /etc/rc.boot/hdparm
which is made part of the hdparm package.
