Sorry, this probably was confusing to everyone except Dimitri and me. The goal here is merely to make Ubuntu compatible to insserv. In particular, any declared LSB dependency in our init.d scripts actually needs to exist. But we don't want to change actual behaviour, i. e. in this case we will put back the alsa-utils init.d script for insserv to be able to compute dependencies, but we'll also add an alsa-utils upstart job which is a no-op (similar to the systemd alsa-utils unit which is also just a /dev/null). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1323274 Title: Restore Debian's init.d script for insserv compatibility Status in “alsa-utils” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “debhelper” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “dovecot” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “kbd” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “kde-workspace” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “lvm2” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “mythtv-status” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “sqcwa” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “squid-prefetch” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “squid3” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “systemd” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: We want/need to follow Debian's migration from static rc?.d/ priorities to dynamic insserv priorities. See https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core- dev/ubuntu/utopic/sysvinit/unreviewed/+merge/219999 for details. This is a tracking bug for all Ubuntu init.d scripts that have LSB header dependencies to init.d scripts which are in Debian, but not in Ubuntu. E. g. /etc/init.d/mpd:# Should-Start: autofs $network $named alsa-utils pulseaudio avahi-daemon But there is no /etc/init.d/alsa-utils in the Ubuntu package. - greylistd is a false positive (changed recently) - cman (src:redhat-cluster) does not exist at all in Ubuntu, so we need to drop/fix its init.d dependencies. - chef-server script comes from chef-server-api which is stuck in -proposed due to uninstallability To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-utils/+bug/1323274/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
