Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: upstart

This upstart configuration file worked in Karmic:

  # hvc0.conf
  start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345]
  stop on runlevel [!2345]
  respawn
  exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 hvc0

After the upgrade to Lucid, something is silently moving this file to
/etc/event.disabled and not logging the action.

If I move this file back to /etc/init and do `initctl start hvc0`, then
the getty is properly started.  It is only at boot time that the upstart
fails to start the getty.

I tried these variants:

  # hvc0.conf
  start on tty-added
  stop on tty-removed TTY=$TTY
  instance TTY
  exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 $TTY

 # hvc0.conf
  start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345]
  stop on runlevel [!2345]
  respawn
  exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 hvc0

  # hvc0.conf
  start on (tty-device-added KERNEL=hvc0 and runlevel [23])
  exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 hvc0

In the Xen guest domU environment, these configurations all work for tty
console devices, but not for hvc console devices during system startup.
