Summary: Review Request: upstart - an event-driven init daemon https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=429028 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-01-21 12:00 EST ------- (In reply to comment #5) > It will be much better for testers and reviewers to be able to > install both packages in parallel. initng can be installed in > parallel, for example. > Initng is packaged as something for more advanced users to experiment with. Its packaging style is not well suited to being the default out of the box init system (which this package hopes to be, FESCo will be talking that over on Thursday). > I am completly new to upstart, but it is a bit strange that > /sbin/init is in this package. Can't upstart be used by only tweaking > inittab and using the previous /sbin/init? In a word: No. Upstart's init is a full event-driven service manager that not only starts services but can monitor them, restart them, and notify the system of their state. (In reply to comment #6) > More on the packaging, unless I am missing something, it looks > like nih should be separated upstream, having that library > bundled with upstart seems wrong. In fact libnih seems > to be a separate project but I haven't found any release. > > If the .la aren't specifically useful they shouldn't be shipped. > > Static libraries should go in -static subpackages, or not be > shipped at all. > > .so files should be in the devel packages. > After further talks with upstream it turns out that neither of the lib packages need be shipped with upstart. I will probably strike them from the package for now. > You have to use %find_lang for the locales packaging (it is covered > in the guidelines), as also said in an above comment. > Working on that.... > Also I suggest looking at the rpmlint output. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
