I agree that there should probably be a "end_msg".
I've modified the patch accordingly.
I'm not sure about it though - I've just used the same method as Kees Cook did
for powernowd (in 0.97-2ubuntu4), replacing "log_success_msg" with
"log_action_cont_msg". But in this case there were calls to log_begin_msg /
log_end_msg already.
The reason for this patch after all is, that usplash displays the message
corrupted when only using log_warning_msg, like it's done in Debian.
