Package: upstart Version: 0.6.6-2 Severity: important Hi,
sysvinit (2.88dsf-19) switched from using /dev/initctl (Linux) and /etc/.initctl (kFreeBSD) to /run/initctl. This was the final part of the wider /run transition, and additionally unifies the path across all Debian platforms. upstart contains code to send control messages to the control FIFO, but this code is using the old path /dev/initctl. Please could you update upstart to use the new path? There are two possible ways to do this: 1) Straight switch to new path This will require a Breaks: sysvinit (<< 2.88dsf-19) to ensure that the new control FIFO path is present and has a listener. 2) Use new path, but fall back to old path if not present This will allow the Breaks: to be skipped, and will support both old and new versions of sysvinit, at the expense of adding the fallback logic to the upstart code.
