Bug Description
Binary package hint: atheme-services
Whenever the system reboots atheme-services fails to reload and refuses to do so properly until an apt-get purge and install are done. This install will last until the next reboot. Unfortunately I am unable to produce anything that will point to it but anything that you need can be easily produced. This issue is consistently reproducible.
The symptom of the service not starting is that it will show that it has "loaded" however it does not show up in the process list. Also services supplied by it are not available.
Note I have tried a few things here.
Used the base module list (only required setting changes like uplink)
While it was working tried to stop and restart the service manually (which worked fine)
A reliable strace cannot be made. Both the working and non-working setups ended with a session detachment since it goes into the background.
A reliable backtrace cannot be made. The non-working install ended with the message that it terminated normally. No stack or registers available. The failure happens after the detach.
So for some reason it doesn't like the reboot. I am really scratching my head on this myself.
`lsb_release -rd`

I did a manual compile of 3.1.1 and re-used the script (slightly modified) and it appears the issue disappeared with the new version. Reboots no longer causes it to fail to load.
