sysvinit 2.86.ds1-59ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-59ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Support Cell processor:
      + debian/initscripts/postinst: Create spu system group and /spu mount
        point if we are running on a Cell processor.
      + debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh: Mount spufs if Cell
        processor is detected.
      + debian/control: Add initscripts dependency 'passwd' for groupadd.
      (Debian #483399)
    - Use tmpfs mounts for /var/lock and /var/run:
      + debian/initscripts/share/default.rcS: Enable RAMRUN and RAMLOCK by
        default.
      + debian/initscripts/postinst: Enable RAMRUN and RAMLOCK in
        /etc/default/rcS on upgrades. This needs to be kept until the next
        LTS.
      + debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh: Propagate files from the
        initramfs to our new /var/run, so that we can populate
        /var/run/sendsigs.omit from initramfs.
      (Ubuntu specific policy, Debian does not want to use tmpfs by default)
    - Different boot order:
      + debian/initscripts/postinst: Change the rcS priorities of a bunch of
        init scripts.
      + Disable bootlogd, since it is handled by upstart in Ubuntu.
    - Usplash support:
      + debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/sendsigs: Call usplash_down on stop.
    - Usplash fsck integration:
      + debian/initscripts/lib/init/usplash-fsck-functions.sh: Functions for
        reporting fsck progress in usplash.
      + debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/check{root,fs}.sh: Include
        usplash-fsck-functions.sh and use it if usplash is running.
    - debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/sendsigs: Always mount devpts, and do not
      touch /dev/ptmx (which is already managed by udev).
    - debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/checkroot.sh: If ACPI is available, load
      the ac module before checking the root filesystem, so that fsck can
      skip the check when running on battery. (LP #89752, Debian #483394)
    - debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh: Drop mounting of usbdevfs
      (/proc/bus/usb), it was deprecated long ago. (Debian #483392)
    - debian/patches/91_sulogin_lockedpw.dpatch: Disable "root account is
      locked" warning, since this is the default in Ubuntu. Document this in
      sulogin.8.
    - debian/control: Do not make sysvinit essential, so that we can replace
      it with upstart.
    - debian/sysv-rc/sbin/update-rc.d: Support 'multiuser' argument for
      backwards compatibility. This is deprecated now, since Debian adopted a
      different strategy, and for getting in sync with Debian the runlevels
      should be specified manually.
    - debian/control: Previous name for sysvinit-utils was 'sysvutils' in
      Ubuntu, so Conflict/Replace/Provide it. Also create a dummy sysvutils
      package, since Hardy has reverse versioned dependencies to it. This
      needs to be kept until after the next LTS.
    - debian/initscripts/{pre,postinst}: waitnfs.sh -> mountnfs.sh renaming
      transition. This needs to be kept until after the next LTS.

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-59) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix uninitialised previous_stop caused by typo in fix for
    bug #483172 (Closes: #484607).
  * Set $LANG from /etc/default/locale in mountall.sh, so that ntfs-3g and
    friends can get correct file name encodings. (Closes: #483396)

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-58) unstable; urgency=low

  * Optimize start symlinks as if they are stop symlinks for runlevels 0 and
    6, to avoid problems with portmap during shutdown (Closes: #483172).
  * Repair eliminate_conffile() in initscripts preinst, making sure
    unchanged conffiles are properly handled (Closes: #483391).
    Patch from Martin Pitt and Ubuntu.
  * Make sure a few essential directories (/proc, /sys, /var/{run,lock}) is
    created in init.d/umountroot if missing, right before mounting root r/o.
    It is a convenient (and one of the very few possible) place to ensure that
    the next boot will succeed (Closes: #483393).  Patch from Martin Pitt
    and Ubuntu.

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-57) unstable; urgency=low

  * Remove another bashism in init.d/rc blocking startpar concurrency
    (Closes: #481770).
  * Fix wake on lan issue introduced with freebsd patch in version
    2.86.ds1-4 (Closes: #405870).  Patch from Lucas Nussbaum.
  * Convert files debian/patches/12_doc_lastb.dpatch,
    debian/sysv-rc/man8/es/update-rc.d.8,
    debian/sysv-rc/man8/fr/update-rc.d.8,
    debian/sysv-rc/man8/ja/update-rc.d.8 and
    debian/sysv-rc/etc/init.d/rc to UTF-8 (Closes: #478657).
    Patch from Ben Finney.
  * New patch 84_killall_fuse.dpatch to avoid shutdown problems with
    user space file systems, by not stat()-ing files when killing
    processes during shutdown (Closes: #476695).  Patch from Goswin
    von Brederlow.
  * Remove special case handling of splash screens in sendsigs.
    The usplash and splashy packages are expected to use the
    omitpid feature from now on.
