Control: retitle -1 Warn about modified /etc/inittab or init scripts I'd written some code in 765803 about how to detect and warn about changes to /etc/inittab or to init scripts, since systemd will not take those changes into account. However, that bug isn't the right place for that code; it belongs in a systemd bug report instead, requesting the inclusion of such code.
Here's the most recent version. It still needs debconfery, and ideally some mechanism to avoid warning about modified init scripts if those init scripts aren't actually overridden by a systemd service, though the latter isn't strictly required (since the admin might want to consider such a situation regardless). It also needs updating to include any additional inittab lines that d-i can create, such as additional consoles. (However, such lines shouldn't simply be ignored, unless we know systemd will actually provide the same consoles.) inittab_unusual_lines="$( grep '^[^#]' /etc/inittab | while read line ; do case "$line" in 'id:2:initdefault:') ;; 'si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS') ;; '~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin') ;; 'l0:0:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 0') ;; 'l1:1:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 1') ;; 'l2:2:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 2') ;; 'l3:3:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 3') ;; 'l4:4:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 4') ;; 'l5:5:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 5') ;; 'l6:6:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 6') ;; 'z6:6:respawn:/sbin/sulogin') ;; 'ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r now') ;; 'pf::powerwait:/etc/init.d/powerfail start') ;; 'pn::powerfailnow:/etc/init.d/powerfail now') ;; 'po::powerokwait:/etc/init.d/powerfail stop') ;; '1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1') ;; '2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2') ;; '3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3') ;; '4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4') ;; '5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5') ;; '6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6') ;; *) echo "$line" ;; esac done )" modified_initscripts="$( dpkg-query --show -f'${Conffiles}' | sed 's, /,\n/,g' | sed -n '/^\/etc\/init\.d\//s/^\([^ ]*\) \(.*\)$/\2 \1/p' | md5sum --quiet -c 2>/dev/null | cut -d: -f1 )" if [ -n "$inittab_unusual_lines" ] || [ -n "$modified_initscripts" ]; then # Substitute these variables into a debconf template and display it cat <<EOF /etc/inittab: $inittab_unusual_lines Modified init scripts: $modified_initscripts EOF fi _______________________________________________ Pkg-systemd-maintainers mailing list Pkg-systemd-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-systemd-maintainers
