Bug Description

When starting landscape-client on Intrepid, we get this warning:

root@interpid-vm:~# landscape-client
2008-08-12 13:10:08,793 INFO [MainThread] Watchdog watching for daemons on 'system' bus.
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/landscape/watchdog.py:135: PotentialZombieWarning: spawnProcess called, but the SIGCHLD handler is not installed. This probably means you have not yet called reactor.run, or called reactor.run(installSignalHandler=0). You will probably never see this process finish, and it may become a
zombie process.

---------------
landscape-client (1.0.21-0ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  [ Christopher Armstrong ]
  * New upstream release (LP: #271886):
    - Bug fix release:
    - Avoid the PotentialZombieWarning on landscape-client startup.
     (LP: #257346)
    - When run as root, read sysinfo configuration from /etc and and write
      logs to /var/log instead of /root. (LP: #268560)
    - Avoid ZeroDivisionErrors when /home is an autofs. (LP: #269634)
    - Don't corrupt a pid file when trying to start the client when it's
      already running. (LP: #269634)
    - Remove the pid file when shutting down the client. (LP: #257081)

  [ Mathias Gug ]
  * debian/landscape-client.init: specify the pid file and use --startas
    instead of --exec when starting landscape-client so that the init script
    doesn't fail if landscape-client is already running.
