Package: lsb-base
Version: 3.0-5
Severity: wishlist

lsb-base now has support for:

    Starting fooification service: foo.

generated by log_daemon_msg(), log_progress_msg() and log_end_msg().

It would be nice also to have support for:

    Cleaning up fooification database...done.

So far as I can see there is no way to do this with the currently
provided functions.  The hitch is that although policy requires
there to be no space before or after the ellipsis, the current
init functions do introduce spaces.

I suggest that there be separate functions for this, e.g.,
log_action_msg(), log_continuation_msg(), log_completion_msg().
