As part of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.5/+bug/1273462 & https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=712763 I'm working on a patch to add a hook into lsb-initfunctions.d (which init.d script in your package sources) that way no changes to the init script would be required / nor exit codes added / nor dependency on higher (debian specific) functions from sysv-init package. In essence this brings back "upstart-job" symlinks, but via lsb initfunctions hook, thus the following would happen if one invokes init.d script: # /etc/init.d/ssh restart ssh stop/waiting ssh start/running, process 6946 This is more in-spirit with previous (ubuntu-only) implementation of sysv-init migration which made /etc/inid./ssh a symlink to an "upstart-job" script that called into initctl commands. This is also similar to what systemd integration on Debian/Ubuntu does. I believe adding above lsb hook is compliant with Debian Policy ยง9.11.1 in a sense that init.d scripts "avoid running in favor of the native upstart job". It's just in common case it's done on behalf of the maintainers / users. > to the allegations made in this bug report: upstart support has been > only *temporarily* be present in experimental. it has never been in > unstable, technically there was never any upstart support. > There is, however, support for upstart in ubuntu for that package and a developer of that derivative had to spend extra work rebasing/reintroducing the support back as part of regular merge work to keep up to date with changes introduced in Debian. Thus slightly more development time was used up on this issue/bug collectively across debian & derivative distributions. > [1] > http://daniel-baumann.ch/gitweb/?p=debian/packages/tftp-hpa.git;a=commitdiff;h=0ec85b4d4fcd3d4bbd7fa97e81c35fd301ac7060 -- Regards, Dimitri. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
