This appears to have been added to replace the `fam` package in an early version of DMS with Courier for IMAP instead of Dovecot on an Ubuntu 14.04 base image.
It does not appear to serve a purpose anymore.
* chore: Remove the wrapper script for `fail2ban`
- This does not appear necessary. The server can be run with foreground mode.
- `daemons-stack.sh` removal of the socket can be handled by the fail2ban server when using the `-x` option.
* chore: Remove `touch /var/log/auth.log`
These were both added as supposed fixes in 2016 for the then Ubuntu 2014 base image.
Removing them causes no failures in tests.
* fix: Install optional python packages for `fail2ban`
These have barely any overhead in layer weight. The DNS package may provide some QoL improvements, while the `pyinotify` is a better alternative than polling logs to check for updates.
We have `gamin` package installed but `fail2ban` would complain in the log that it was not able to initialize the module for it. There only appears to be a `python-gamin` dependent on EOL python 2, no longer available from Debian Bullseye.
This new script is a clean way of handling the installation of packages.
I think the huge `RUN` command in `Dockerfile` was hard to read and
maintain.
Using a script is a non-issue, as the image is rebuilt whenever the
script is touched.
