Package: lintian Version: 2.3.2 Tags: patch Upstart jobs are installed in /etc/init, however, symlinks are placed in /etc/init.d to the upstart binaries, which helps backward compatibility.
These symlinks all point to /lib/init/upstart-job, which is a shell script, but not actually an init script, and thus should not be subjected to these lintian checks: * init.d-script-missing-lsb-section * script-in-etc-init.d-not-registered-via-update-rc.d The following patch from Jos Boumans ensure that these rules are not enforced on init.d links which are really upstart jobs. We are carrying this patch in Ubuntu. We would appreciate Debian's consideration of merging it upstream. Thanks. -- :-Dustin Dustin Kirkland Canonical, LTD kirkl...@canonical.com GPG: 1024D/83A61194
