Changelog

init-system-helpers (1.63) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Debian Janitor ]
  * Remove constraints unnecessary since buster
    * init-system-helpers: Drop versioned constraint on perl-base in Depends.
    * init: Drop versioned constraint on init-system-helpers in Depends.

  [ Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues ]
  * t/helpers.pm: use installed version of deb-systemd-helper if
    TEST_INSTALLED is set
  * add DPKG_ROOT support (Closes: #983421)

  [ Niels Thykier ]
  * Add additional error checking on write operations.
    The `close()` call can fail on both read and write - while the read is
    usually relatively benign, for the write counter part can include "fun"
    errors. Most of these would most likely be persistent issues, but it makes
    sense to detect errors as early possible.

  [ Ville Skyttä ]
  * service: use `grep -F` instead of `egrep`
    `egrep` and `fgrep` have been deprecated in GNU grep since 2007, and in
    current post 3.7 Git they have been made to emit obsolescence warnings.
    The occurrence in `service` uses a non-regex argument, so switch to `grep
    -F` instead of `-E`.

init: metapackage ensuring an init system is installed

 This package is a metapackage which allows you to select from the available
 init systems while ensuring that one of these is available on the system at
 all times.

init-system-helpers: helper tools for all init systems

 This package contains helper tools that are necessary for switching between
 the various init systems that Debian contains (e. g. sysvinit or
 systemd). An example is deb-systemd-helper, a script that enables systemd unit
 files without depending on a running systemd.
 .
 It also includes the "service", "invoke-rc.d", and "update-rc.d" scripts which
 provide an abstraction for enabling, disabling, starting, and stopping
 services for all supported Debian init systems as specified by the policy.
 .
 While this package is maintained by pkg-systemd-maintainers, it is NOT
 specific to systemd at all. Maintainers of other init systems are welcome to
 include their helpers in this package.
