severity important
thanks

Hi,

please let me explain why I'm reopening this bug.  First of all, Marco,
thanks for uploading a new version of the package that makes the
probability of this happening lower.  I am still very unhappy with the
current status, I plainly believe that /etc/init.d/$foo stop;
/etc/init.d/$foo start should just work.  However, giving the users a
decent warning is definitly a step in the right direction.

In my opinion, bugs are _not_ a blame tracking tool, but an action
tracking tool.  I think it would be nice if stop & start would work that
way.  Leaving this bug open would help all that are interested in udev
(and would perhaps also motivate some people to work on a solution for
that).  Some (inofficial) reasoning to set it to a RC-grade would be
that more people are working on it - but well, that's in the end your
decision as maintainer.  "Very unhappy" doesn't usually translate to
RC-bugs, but "just" to important ones, and that's (part of) the reason
why I downgrade this bug to important now.

I hope that you can at least agree to this summary as much that this bug
can stay open till a final solution.  I know that you work quite hard on
udev, and I appreciate your hard work very much.  I also know that the
problems connected with udev are not too easy to solve - but well,
that's one of the reasons why bugs are just task trackers, not blame
trackers.


Thank you for your work with udev.


Cheers,
Andi
