[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Change if-up.d/mountnfs to not claim to wait for the last network
interface when there are no network file systems listed in
/etc/fstab (Closes: #512237, 481028). Patch from Adrian Bridgett.
* Add startpar patch 05_pri_kdm_gdm.patch to try to get gdm and kdm
to start earlier when concurrent booting is enabled.
* Quiet down sysv-rc postinst to not give error when no file exist
in /var/lib/update-rc.d. Discovered from piuparts.
* Report error from update-rc.d when insserv reject a script, to
make it more clear what program call failed in a postinst.
* Drop optional dependency from checkfs to cryptdisks, the
cryptdisks script have a reverse dependency on checkfs, and that
is a better way to do it.
* Rewrite init.d/mtab.sh and init.d/checkroot.sh to not use
/usr/bin/which, as it is running before /usr/ is guaranteed to be
available.
* Rewrite /lib/init/usplash-fsck-functions.sh to use blkid instead of
the now obsolete vol_id. Patch from Martin Pitt and Ubuntu.
* Update 91_sulogin_lockedpw.dpatch to include documentation,
without the Ubuntu references. Based on patch from Scott James
Remnant and Ubuntu.
* Add patch 55_bootlogd_flush.patch to make sure lines are flushed
to the kernel even when not asking the kernel to flush to disk
(Closes: 542515). Patch from Scott Gifford.
* Add patch 63_init_keep_utf8_ttyflag.patch to make sure the utf-8
tty flag is not cleared (Closes: 547073). Patch from Samuel
Thibault.
* Include url to wiki page with information on how to fix the
problems when unable to migrate to dependency based boot
sequencing.
* Make mountnfs-bootclean.sh also depend on $local_fs, to avoid
surprises on systems where the admin removed mountnfs.sh from
rcS.d/. It is not a good idea to remove it, but there is no need
for the script to fail when someone is crazy enough to remove a
essential init.d script

* invoke-rc.d: return exit status 4 when action "status" is denied,
to allow simpleminded policy-rc.d scripts to work well with the

sysvinit (2.87dsf-5) experimental; urgency=low
* Uploading to experimental, to test the new build rules.
* Make sysv-rc postinst report detected problems to stderr too when
failing to migrate.
* Fix typo in error message from postinst (Closes: #545409).
* Make initscripts depend on sysvinit-utils (>= 2.86.ds1-64), to
make sure the fstab-decode program is available (Closes: #545356).
* Make sure the calls to 'update-rc.d X remove' in initscripts
postinst do not ignore errors (Closes: #406361).
* Make sysvinit depend on sysvinit-utils (>= 2.86.ds1-66) to avoid
that bootlogd disappear during partial upgrades (Closes: #545368).
* Restructure source package to make it possible to use debhelper in
the common way to build the source, by moving debian/initscripts/
and debian/sysv-rc/ into debian/src/. Restructure build rules to
use debhelper more, and migrate to debhelper 7.
* New patch 98_installtarget.patch to improve the sysvinit install
target.
* Remove /etc/init.d/.depend.* in prerm, not postrm, to avoid
surprises.
* Remove /var/lib/update-rc.d/* when the package is purged.
* Change cut-off point for the trimmed changelog entries in
sysvinit-utils, initscripts and sysv-rc from version 2.84-3 to
version 2.86.ds1-47, to reduce the package sizes.
* Drop hurd specific dependency on libc0.3 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-12). It is
no longer needed according to Michael Bunk. Patch from Michael
Biebl.
* Remove information about scripts in /var/lib/update-rc.d/ when
their runlevel symlinks are removed (Closes: #545949). Remove
such files left behind earlier during upgrade.
* Bootlogd now starts as late as possible (Closes: #265801)
* Drop the binary /lib/init/readlink from initscripts and depend on
coreutils (>= 5.93) instead. Adjust scripts to use the program
from coreutils from now on (Closes: #239342).
* Make sure insserv exit values propagate through update-rc.d to make
sure packages with errors fail to install.

* Fix sysv-rc postinst to not fail when insserv report more than one
error (Closes: #545205)

sysvinit (2.87dsf-3) unstable; urgency=low
[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Drop execution of files in /etc/rc.boot from sysv-rc. This feature
have been obsolete since before 1999. Remove the rc.boot(5) manual
page from the source as well.
* Make init.d/rc.local depend on $all to get it to start later in
the boot sequence (Closes: #539084).
* Rewrite message from update-rc.d to make it more obvious that both
start and stop symlinks are taken into account (Closes: #519553).
* Rewrite /etc/rcS.d/README and /etc/rc[2-5].d/README to explain how
to disable a service at a given runlevel with the dependency based
boot sequencing. Remove the list of well known sequence numbers
in rcS.d/ that is no longer valid with dependency based boot
sequencing.
* Make sysv-rc Breaks: initscripts (<< 2.86.ds1-63) to make sure
scripts working with makefile style concurrent booting is
installed. Not using dependency to avoid circular dependency
between initscripts and sysv-rc.
* Move the code to migrate to dependency based boot sequencing
during upgrades from the insserv package to the sysv-rc package.
Depend on insserv (>> 1.12.0-10) for this. Let initscripts depend
on sysv-rc | file-rc to make sure they are installed first.
Migration is a one-way process, enabled after a critical debconf
question during upgrades when it is safe to do so (Closes:
#540546, #541041, 541604). Checks previously done by
update-bootsystem-insserv are now only done once in sysv-rc
postinst (Closes: #538934). Dependency based boot sequencing is
now the default. This change make it possible to remove both
sysv-rc and insserv (Closes: #538959) if other packages want to
take over the boot sequencing resposibility.
* Rewrite initscripts postinst to always use the update-rc.d script
instead of the legacy updatercd() function which was used as a
speed optimization no longer relevant when dependency based boot
sequencing is the default.
[ Kel Modderman ]
* Migrate from dpatch to quilt for patch management:
- build-depend on quilt (>= 0.40)
- provide patch and unpatch targets in debian/rules. use custom
patch targets to allow for separate debian/patches and
debian/startpar/patches patch series
- keep .dpatch file extenstion to make checking changes easier
- add debian/README.source to describe patch system we use
* Purge debian/patches/12_doc_lastb.dpatch and
debian/patches/68_init_quiet.dpatch, they were never applied and wrong.
* Update patch header for all remaining patches.
* Call dpkg-shlibdeps debian/startpar/startpar for sysvinit-utils package
and not sysvinit, startpar moved in revision 2.86.ds1-62.
* Remove checkdir, checkroot and buildfromsvn targets from
debian/rules. The latter is unused by current maintainers and the
former can be replaced with dh_testdir and dh_testroot instead.
* Fix reject hunk of debian/patches/70_compiler_warnings.dpatch to
fix another compile warning.
* Make sure update-rc.d compares command line parameters for start/stop
runlevel configuration with the Default-Start and Default-Stop values in
LSB info comment of script and warns if there are differences.
* Update sysv-rc debconf templates with text which help explain
dependency based boot to end users, and provide sound advice for
people who encounter problems which prevent the migration.
* Update inittab.kfreebsd-gnu: On GNU/kFreeBSD the serial devices have
change from /dev/cuuaX to /dev/ttydX in kernel 6.0 which is minumum
kernel currently supported in Debian. (Closes: #544555)
* Make sure sysv-rc/etc/init.d/rc checks insserv has reordered boot
system by checking for /etc/init.d/.depend.* when CONCURRENCY=shell
too. (Closes: #544565)
[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Adjust init.d/bootlogd dependencies to start before hostname,
procps, pcmcia, hwclock, hwclockfirst, hibernate-clean and hdparm,
to get the bootlogger started earlier in the boot (Closes: #538936).
* Extend the update-rc.d(8) manual page to document the new behaviour.
Do not install translated update-rc.d manual pages until they
are updated to reflect this.
* Use versioned conflict on chkconfig (<< 11.0-79.1-2), now that it
dropped the service command (Closes: #541727).
* Drop unneeded dependency rmnologin from init.d/stop-bootlogd, and
correct $remote_fs dependency to $local_fs, as /usr/ is not aused.
* Drop unneeded dependency on udev for init.d/bootlogs, and add ldm
and sdm to list of display managers to start after to get the
complete list.
* Extend boot order migration check to reject migration if init.d
scripts from removed but not purged packages are present.
* Add $syslog as a dependency for init.d/skeleton, as it should
be used in the normal case.
* Change init.d/urandom dependency from $local_fs to $remote_fs, as
it uses /usr/bin/find to handle locally increased pool size
(Closes: #543294).
* Drop initscripts conflict on insserv (<< 1.09.0-12), now that
sysv-rc depend on insserv (>> 1.12.0-10).
* Drop initscripts conflict on udev (<< 0.080-1), which was
before the current oldstable was released.
* Drop initscripts conflict on usplash (<< 0.5.8-2), which was
before the current stable was released.
* Remove code in init.d/killprocs to restart /sbin/update, as it is
only useful for kernels up to linux 2.2, which is no longer
supported (Closes: #544249). Thanks to Marco d'Itri for the tip.
* Update Standards-Version from 3.8.2 to 3.8.3. No changes needed.
* Add code in initscripts.postrm to remove rc settings for init.d
scripts on removal to follow policy and keep lintian happy, even
though removing initscripts will leave the system unbootable.
Update lintian overrides to reflect this.
* Implement status argument to init.d/bootlogs, init.d/checkroot.sh,
init.d/hostname.sh, init.d/rmnologin and init.d/urandom.

on debhelper for this. Use compat level 1 to get it to process
debian/tmp/.
* Drop the stop calls for K11mountoverflowtmp in runlevels 0 and 6.
The umountfs script will take care of that task (Closes: 526733).
* Remove setting of unused makefile variable LIBC6 from rules.
* Move copyright, preinst, postinst and postrm files for initscripts

source packages.
* Add the sysv-rc saveconfig script to /usr/share/doc/sysv-rc/
to provide an example.
* Let sysv-rc depend on insserv (>= 1.12.0-10) to activate
dependency based boot sequencing by default (Closes: #472587).

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-35) unstable; urgency=medium
* Medium urgency as it solve some RC bugs in etch.
* Make sure init.d/umountfs umount tmpfs file systems in order of
decreasing length, to avoid problems on systems with chroots.
Patch from Peter Rabbitson. (Closes: #391673)
* Add boot option ASYNCMOUNTNFS=no to get the old init.d/mountnfs.sh
behaviour until ifup work properly with / on NFS. The default is
'yes' as it has the highest chance of success for non-diskless machines.
It is also useful for machines with multiple network cards.
(Closes: #388761, #393532)
* Fix syslogging code in if-up.d/mountnfs to find logger if it exist.
Patch from John Morrissey. (Closes: #398644)
* Avoid file descriptor leak to mount in init.d/mtab.sh. Based
on patch from David Härdeman. (Closes: #397525).
* Fix typo in message added in 91_sulogin_lockedpw.dpatch.
Thanks to Robert Bihlmeyer. (Closes: #399715)
* Undo use of fuser to kill processes in umountnfs before unmounting
partitions, as it will kill init and /etc/init.d/rc during
shutdown if root is on NFS or tmpfs file systems are bind-mounted
into chroots. Use sendsigs and move it before umountnfs, and thus
reopen bugs #258420, #367944. (Closes: #392861, #391375)

* Medium urgency as it solve some RC bugs.
* Remove the postinst code in initscripts for mounting /lib/init/rw/.
Just require a reboot for it to take effect, instead of trying to
make sure it is mounted when the package is installed. Flag this
need using /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required if it

* Print message when refusing to mount nfs directories because the
lockdir exist.
* Add exit handler in if-up.d/mountnfs to make sure the lock directory
is removed when the script is interrupted.
* Remove NEWS entries explaining how to recover from the version of
sysv-rc present 6th to 8th of September in unstable. Remove

* Only try to create /var/run and /var/lock on the root file system
in non-chroot environments?
* Use 'mkdir -p' when creating /.root, to avoid failing if it
already exist. (Closes: #390327)
* Do not try to create /var/run and /var/lock during installation or
upgrades if /var is a relative symlink. It is not going to

* Update init.d/mtab.sh to make sure it store the correct options
used to mount /dev/shm in /etc/mtab.
* Drop the 'noexec' flag from the /dev/shm/ mount point until etch
is released, to avoid breaking dosemu and user-mode-linux. It will
be reintroduced after etch is released. This is related to
bugs #386945 and #386368.

to make every non-root file system is unmounted before halt or
reboot. (Closes: #383124)

* Correct mtab.sh to make sure the mtab content matches the options used
when mounting /var/run/.
* New defaults/tmpfs options RUN_SIZE and LOCK_SIZE, controlling the
tmpfs size. Modified the mount code to also use TMPFS_SIZE if
set as a fallback value.
-- Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@debian.org> Tue, 26 Sep 2006 15:09:30 +0200
sysvinit (2.86.ds1-24) experimental; urgency=low

* Make it easier to debug the splash progress bar in init.d/rc.
* Correct mtab entry for /sys, to make sure its 'device' is sysfs.
* Include vars.sh in mtab.sh, to make sure the RAMRUN and RAMLOCK
options are available when used.
* Add defaults/tmpfs option RW_SIZE to control the size of
/lib/init/rw/, and change mountkernfs.sh to use TMPFS_SIZE too if
it is set.
* Rewrite post_mountall() function to avoid mounting /var/run/ and
/var/lock/ on top of themselves when RAMRUN or RAMLOCK is enabled.
-- Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@debian.org> Sat, 23 Sep 2006 19:01:38 +0200
sysvinit (2.86.ds1-23) experimental; urgency=low
* Make the tmpfs on /var/run/ and /var/lock/ optional, and provide
RAMRUN and RAMLOCK options in /etc/default/rcS to control this.
Remove code to convert to this feature when the package is
upgraded or installed. It will take effect after a reboot if
/etc/default/rcS is modified. Keep them disabled for now.
Create .ramfs files in the directories if tmpfs is used to make it
easier for other scripts to know if they are safe to use early in
the boot.
* Create /lib/init/rw/, and mount a tmpfs there to garantee some
writable area very early in the boot. Use this in checkroot.sh if
a device node need to be created. Create .ramfs indicator when
it is mounted.
* Move sulogin to the sysvinit-utils package as well. (Closes: #388417)
* Add new halt option NETDOWN to make it easier to enable
wake-on-lan. (Closes: #388244)
* Add a stop dependency for umountroot on kexec, to document the
correct location for a kexec script. Related to bug #387599.
* Make sure update-rd.d-recover is not compressed to make it easier to run.
-- Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@debian.org> Fri, 22 Sep 2006 21:34:37 +0200
sysvinit (2.86.ds1-22) experimental; urgency=low
* Let mountdevsubfs provide mountvirtfs to work with init.d scripts
with obsolete dependency information.
* Change mounting of virtual file systems to specify the device name
explicitly, to make sure /proc/mounts and /etc/mtab end up with
the same device name.
* Split killall5, last, lastb, mesg and pidof out of the sysvinit
package into a new sysvinit-utils package to make it easier to
replace sysvinit. (Closes: #385722)
* Mount /var/run/ as tmpfs in mountkernfs.sh, to have some place to
write state information very early in the boot, and thus avoid a
lot of cludges in scripts running before partitions are checked
and mounted. Mount /var/lock/ as tmpfs to avoid having to clean
it during boot, and to have some place to store locks for the
things running before partitions are checked and mounted.
Packages need to create the directories they expect to find in
these directories from now on. Patch from Scott James Remnant and
Ubuntu.
* Adjust checkroot.sh to create the root device node in /var/run/
when needed, instead of mounting its own tmpfs. Modified
/var/run/ to allow devices and executables.
-- Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@debian.org> Sat, 16 Sep 2006 12:14:36 +0200
sysvinit (2.86.ds1-21) experimental; urgency=low
* Correct status report handling in umountnfs.sh. Based on patch
from Markus Schoder. (Closes: #386893)
* Change mountnfs.sh, rc.local and skeleton to use /lib/init/vars.sh
instead of sourcing /etc/default/rcS, to activate the INIT_VERBOSE
variable for these scripts.
* Add support in the init.d scripts for the 'quiet' kernel option.
Keep support for the experiemental INIT_VERBOSE, to make it
possible to override VERBOSE=no on the kernel command line.
* New draft patch 68_init_quiet to make init less verbose when the
'quiet' kernel option is used. If it worked, it would solve bug
#326677.
* Add a few lintian overrides for things that are correct though strange.
* Rewrite sendsigs to sleep up to 5 seconds (instead of always
sleeping 5 seconds) during shutdown if there are no processes left
to wait for. Modify killall5 to make it report if it found any
processes to kill to make this possible.
* Modify mtab.sh to include /dev/.static/dev in /etc/mtab, to avoid
message from umountfs during shutdown about it being missing in mtab.
* Now that mtab is properly updated by mtab.sh before mountall.sh,
there is no need to have special handling of proc file systems.
Remove the code from mountall.sh. (Closes: #359651)
* Only kill processes using remote file systems before trying to
umount them, if fuser from the psmisc package is available, and
move sendsigs to a point between where remote and local file systems
are umounted. Recommend psmisc for package initscripts.
(Closes: #258420, #367944)
* Add conditional dependency on glibc for hostname.sh and
mountkernfs.sh, to allow the glibc warnings to show up without
anything running in parallel.
* Change default PATH in initscripts and init to prefer sbin/ over
bin/, to avoid picking user visible replacement for system
binaries. This avoids shutdown problems on some
machines. (Closes: #354163)
* Fix typo in init.d/README. (Closes: #387236)
* Add /usr/bin/ to the checkroot and checkfs PATH, to make sure
on_ac_power is used if it is available. (Closes: #387308)
* Modify mtab.sh to insert the device name used when mounting
/dev/shm/ in /etc/mtab. (Closes: #387216)
-- Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@debian.org> Thu, 14 Sep 2006 15:09:33 +0200
sysvinit (2.86.ds1-20) unstable; urgency=low
* Change initscripts postinst to use update-rc.d program instead of
its shell script function when insserv is installed.
* Change updatercd call order in initscripts postinst to make sure
they are called in dependency order, to work better with insserv.
* Improve update-rc.d-recover script to look in /var/log/dpkg.log
for version 2.86.ds1-17 as well as 2.86.ds1-16. Patch from Stefan
Bellon.
* LSB header updates:
- sendsigs should stop before umountnfs, and umountnfs should stop
before umountfs, until we have a solution for bug #258420 and
#367944.
- mountnfs.sh should list $network as an optional dependency like
for umountnfs, to work on machines without network.

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-19) unstable; urgency=low
* Add new NEWS entry with a better shell fragment for recovering
from the update-rc.d problem. Add script
/usr/share/doc/sysv-rc/update-rc.d-recover to make it easier for
people to recover from problems introduced in versions 2.86.ds1-16
and 2.86.ds1-17.(Closes: #386649)
* Rewrite checkroot.sh to not use lazy umount and a private tmpfs,
and keep the tmpfs mounted on /tmp/ as long as checkroot.sh need
it. It seem that fsck did not like relative device paths.
(Closes: #386347, #386699)
* LSB header updates:
- umountfs should execute before umountroot, not before halt or
reboot.
- umountroot should stop in runlevel 0 and 6, and execute before
halt or reboot.

* Make sure running update-rc.d several times do not remove the
rc*.d/ symlinks, fixing bug introduced in 2.86.ds1-16. Patch from
Arjan Oosting. (Closes: #386500) Added entry in NEWS file to give
clues on how to fix the breakage in upgraded packages introduced
by this. Print a warning when upgrading from the broken versions.
* Change checkroot.sh to use a private tmpfs file system for its
device file if it is missing from /dev/. (Closes: #386347)
* Also create possibly non-existant parent directory of lock directory
/var/run/network/mountnfs in ifup script. Patch from Arjan
Oosting. (Closes: #386449).
* Mark /etc/init.d/rc.local as a conffile, to make sure we do not
replace an exisitng rc.local file without warning the system
admin. (Closes: #386418)
* Mount /dev/pts/ with noexec,nosuid, as it is only used for device files.
* Change sysv-rc to print a message when enabling concurrent boot,
specifying the concurrency style. Recommend lsb-base and use it
if available.
* Teach init.d/stop-bootlogd-single to accept the kernel arguments
'S' and '1' as well as 'single' as single-user mode triggers.
(Closes: #367465, #372669)
* Only report umounting of remote file systems when there are remote
file systems to umount.
* Remove 'S' from default-stop in skeleton. It never make sense to add
stop links in rcS.d/.
* Remove execute bit from /etc/init.d/skeleton. (Closes: #372666)
* LSB header updates:
- stop-bootlogd should run after rmnologin.
- mountdevsub.sh should start after udev, if it exist.
- rc.local should not depend on $all to allow it to start earler
in the boot.
- stop-bootlogd-single should depend on $all, to get it last in
the rcS.d/ sequence.
- umountnfs.sh should stop in runlevel 0 and 6, and execute before
umountnfs, sendsigs, portman and $network.
- sendsigs should stop in runlevel 0 and 6, and execute before
umountfs.
- umountfs should stop in runlevel 0 and 6, and execute before halt
or reboot, if it exist.
- halt should stop in runlevel 0, and not run before any other script.
- reboot should stop in runlevel 6, and not run before any other script.

* Fix emergency mode's tty, making sure ^C and ^Z work when booting
with 'emergency' kernel option. Patch from Samuel
Thibault. (Closes: #374543)
* Rewrite usplash reactivation code in init.d/sendsigs to match the
code in Ubuntu. It need to behave the same way as the usplash
startup code, and should not match the code deciding if
usplash_write should be used.
* Change handling of CONCURRENCY in init.d/rc, to make sure an
unrecognized value is treated as 'none'. (Closes: #380602)
* Make sure SATA disks are powered down as well as IDE disks. Patch
from Sebastian Reichelt. (Closes: #348172)
* Mount /dev/shm, /sys, /proc and /proc/bus/usb using
noexec,nodev,nosuid to make it harder to misuse.
(Closes: #378182, #378280)
* Move NFS mounting to an if-up.d script, to make sure we try to
mount NFS file systems after the network is available. Based on
patch from Ubuntu. Modified to rewrite mountnfs.sh instead of
renaming it to waitnfs.sh. (Closes: #360123)
* Add rc.local support to be more compatible with non-Debian
distributions. Patch from Fabio M. Di Nitto via Ubuntu. Modified to
not print messages when VERBOSE=no.
* Drop and remove /etc/init.d/mountvirtfs. It is obsolete.
* Do not try to mount netdev file systems in mountall.sh.
(Closes: #383073, #386063)
* Mount netdev file systems when the network is up. (Closes: #383123)
* Umount netdev file systems in umountnfs.sh. (Closes: #383124)
* Remove obsolete code in init.d/rc to execute /sbin/unconfigured.sh
and /sbin/setup.sh. It was only to be used during installation,
and the installer no longer need it. Add a init.d script if you
need the functionallity.
* Change LSB dependency info for mtab.sh. It need a writable root
file system to update /etc/mtab, and should thus depend on
checkroot, not mountall.
* Move mtab to rcS.d/S12mtab.sh, to make sure it is the first script
to run after checkroot.sh.
* Change init.d/mtab.sh to be more self-contained, and update
/etc/mtab with info on all file systems mounted before /etc/mtab
was writable by processing /proc/mounts. Based on patch from
Scott James Remnant and Ubuntu.
* Add empty functions pre_mountall and post_mountall to reduce the
difference between the Ubuntu version
* Modify update-rc.d to run properly with perl error checking enabled.
* Add support for parsing LSB headers in update-rc.d, and use the
runlevel information in the default-start and default-stop headers
if they are present. Document this in update-rc.d(8). This can
be used instead of the 'multiuser' extention in Ubuntu, by setting
the 'default-stop' value to '1' in the init.d script.
Only enable this feature when /etc/update-rc.d-lsbparse exist
while we verify that LSB headers are correct.
* Change the default VERBOSE value from yes to no.
* Move init.d/hostname.sh to the very top of the boot sequence,
as it only require a readable /etc/hostname and a working kernel.
* Use the stop scripts from the runlevel we are leaving, not the one
we are entering, when switching between runlevels. (Closes: #309813)

useful:
- Change runlevel manpage to be less misleading.
- Make messages in init.d/sendsigs less technical. Based on patch
from Ubuntu.
- Update progress bar changes in init.d/sendsigs and init.d/rc.
Based on patch from Ubuntu. Changed patch to check only once in
init.d/rc if the progress bar is enabled, and to use the same
way in sendsigs and rc to decide if it is enabled or not. It
will be enabled if /sbin/usplash_write is executable.
- If /dev/.udev.log exists, move it to /var/log/udev.log. Patch
from Scott James Remnant.
- Do not umount /dev/shm in umountnfs.sh. It is a tmpfs and can be
safely left behind when shutting down the system.

* bootclean: Adapt from old bootclean.sh; handle return status more
carefully; print diagnostic messages on failures; eliminate use of
subshells; add comments; improve deletion code
* bootclean: Always rm /tmp/.X*-lock
* mountall.sh: Eliminate unnecessary check for pre-2.4 Linux kernel
* mountnfs.sh, mountall.sh: Choose different names for intnl. functions
* mountnfs.sh: Only sleep 1 second after starting portmap; note that
the code to start portmap will disappear someday
* various scripts: Make more messages depend on VERBOSE being != "no"
* various scripts: Handle return status more carefully
* various scripts: Eliminate unnecessary uses of subshell
* mountvirtfs -> mountkernfs.sh; mountdevsubfs -> mountdevsubfs.sh;
mountvirtfs now calls the above two (for backward compatibility);
mtab.sh now runs mountkernfs.sh and mountdevsubfs.sh to update
the mtab file after mountall.sh.
* /etc/init.d/rc: Restore PATH after sourcing an initscript
* debian/rules:
+ Use ':', not the deprecated '.' between owner and group names
in chown commands
+ Use '-o root' with install
* /etc/init.d/README: Note that /etc/init.d/*.sh must have '#!/bin/sh'
and must follow policy 10.4.

[ Thomas Hood ]
* Split mountdevsubfs out of mountvirtfs and run it at S04 and S37.
[Note added in 2.86.ds1-10: these scripts were renamed]
This should not behave any differently, but the split will allow
packages that futz with /dev to do this at S03.
* umountfs: Only run umount if there is something to unmount
(Closes: #345272)
* urandom: Set PATH so that find can be found (Closes: #345273)
* init: 64_init_set_PATH.dpatch: Set PATH if it's unset on re-exec
(Closes: #345370)
* init: 65_init_u_in_06.dpatch: Allow 'telinit u' in runlevels 0, 6
(Closes: #345719) People running Debian from unusual media (such
as filesystems embedded in NTFS files) are wanting to unmount
/sbin at the last moment and need to re-exec init to do so.
* umountroot: Remount ro with -f on GNU/kFreeBSD (Closes: #344547)
* checkroot.sh, checkfs.sh: Pause for five seconds if sulogin fails
so that the user can see the error message (Addresses #337444)
* Include /var/log/fsck/ in initscripts package (Closes: #346139)
* Replace /lib/init/functions.sh with /lib/init/mount-functions.sh
for use by mountvirtfs and mountdevsubfs
* various initscripts: Clean up code that reads fstab
* various scripts: Redirect which program's stderr to /dev/null
since the GNU version prints an error message when the command is
not found (Closes: #345321)
* /etc/default/rcS: Make VERBOSE and DELAYLOGIN default to "no"
* /etc/default/rcS: Remove descriptions of variables; leave behind
a reference to rcS(5). This eliminates the problem of comments
becoming outdated without our being able to update them.
* Remove obsolete docs
* Make initscripts Depend on mount >= 2.11x-1 (Closes: #345968)
* Remove obsolete dependencies on bsdutils, coreutils, dpkg, kbd and
util-linux: the versions in question are older than oldstable, so
any newly installed system and any system that has upgraded to
sarge (or even woody) satisfies the constraints.
* Remove obsolete dependency on the last package: last was forced off
systems when they upgraded to buzz
* Add Replaces to Conflicts: mdutils which no longer exists even in
oldstable
* initscripts postinst: Remove obsolete GMT-to-UTC code: this
conversion was performed when systems were upgraded to potato
* sysvinit: Depend on libc6 rather than Pre-Depending on it; we don't
do anything special in the preinsts any more
* Correct documentation of init's -e and -t options
* Tweak descriptions
* Add READMEs for remaining runlevel dirs (Closes: #242957)
* Previous release also
closes: #227540 "skeleton: Don't include /usr/local/* in PATH"
closes: #346415 "mountnfs.sh doesn't work with the "bg" mount option"
[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* sysv-rc: Fix some typos in the startpar handling. (Closes: #345269)
* Add code to detect and report bad 'exit' calls in init.d scripts,
if they kill /etc/init.d/rc.
* Make sure sourcing work with dash /bin/sh, by using 'set $action'
to pass arguments to the script. (Closes: #345267)

[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Add commented-out code to /etc/init.d/rc for sourcing
*.sh scripts for runlevel 'S'. This is preparation for fixing
#339955. Actually fixing it has to wait until other packages
remove "exit" from their .sh scripts.
* Implement progress bar support for splash screen. Enabled when
usplash_write is in PATH. Patch from Scott James Remnant and Ubuntu.
[ Thomas Hood ]
* *.sh: Make sure that these do their thing when they aren't given any
command line arguments (as is the case when they are sourced)
* initscripts: Improve use of log_* functions
(Closes: #55143, #116366, #323749)
* bootclean.sh: Do not delete symlinks-to-directories from /var/run/
(Closes: #272066)
* checkroot.sh: Fix double printing of 'Done checking root file system';
mountall.sh: Fix chopped-up printing of mount information
(Closes: #339979, #331397, #341097 and presumably closes: #332309)
* checkroot.sh, checkfs.sh: Save fsck logs (Closes: #189356)
Thanks to Theodore Y. Ts'o.
* checkroot.sh, mountvirtfs: Eliminate use of dir_writable in order to
try to please selinux (Closes: #333836)

Thanks to Cameron Hutchison for the patch.
* mountall.sh, mountnfs.sh: Split call to bootclean out into separate
script called at the next sequence number (Closes: #286479)
* bootmisc.sh: Shorten motd header (Closes: #340017)
* bootmisc.sh: Store dynamic motd in /var/run/ and make /etc/motd a
symbolic link. The EDITMOTD variable no longer has any effect; to
disable updating of the motd just point the /etc/motd symlink to a
static file such as /etc/motd.static.
* bootmisc.sh: Rotate dmesg log with savelog (Closes: #237074)
and chgrp adm.
* umountroot: Change mount command in order to exclude bind mounts of
the root directory (Closes: #339023)
* Replace /etc/rc1.d/20single by /etc/rc1.d/S30killprocs and
/etc/rc1.d/S99single so that packages can insert scripts to do
things between the "killall5" in the former and the "exec init -t1 S"
in the latter. This may help to address #145280.
* umountfs: Unmount tmpfs before swapoff and other fs's afterwards
(Closes: #328582, hopefully without reopening #84782)
* Make stop-bootlogd a distinct script rather than a symlink to bootlogd.
Give it its own LSB header.
* Add stop-bootlogd-single initscript to stop bootlogd in "single" mode
(Closes: #213028, #220025)
* checkfs.sh: Implement FSCKTYPES (Closes: #89481) Set, e.g.,
FSCKTYPES="ext2,msdos" to fsck only file system types ext2 and msdos
See fsck(8) for syntax. FSCKTYPES="none" disables fsck of file
systems (other than the root filesystem) altogether.
* all initscripts: Set variables using common script
* all initscripts: Fix usage messages
* all initscripts: Allow VERBOSE to be set via the INIT_VERBOSE=yes
kernel argument (Closes: #286082) Experimental. The name of the
kernel argument may change in the future if we decide to implement
this more generally.

builds
* mountvirtfs: Mount a tmpfs on /run

* initscripts postinst: Mount virtual filesystems
* initscripts preinst: Remove ancient /etc/init.d/boot conversion code
(Closes: #343596)
* default config files: Clean up comments
* Make initscripts Depend on debianutils >= 2.13.1 in order to prevent
#295850. Note that debianutils also has to be >= 2.12.0 so that the
"which" program is available in /bin.
* Remove currently unneeded sysvinit Dependency on coreutils
(Closes: #316423)
* pidof: If the program is specified with a path, don't match processes
of programs run from different paths (Closes: #160329)

when enabling swap. Because of this, show error messages from
swapon.
* Add link to alioth project page in the Debian README.

* When remounting "/", just use "mount -n -o remount,rw /" and don't
bother with the device or other arguments - "mount" will look up the
root device in /etc/fstab, but the device argument to the mount
system call is ignored by the kernel for remount anyway. So this
doesn't hurt even if the device is incorrect, and it fixes a
platform dependant case where "mount -n -o remount,rw <whatever> /"
fails with "mount: you must specify the filesystem type". That
is a bug in mount(8): if you don't specify the type, it passes
garbage to the kernel, and some archs choke on that.
(closes: #239735)
* change checkroot.sh so that it never checks the root filesystem
if root is on NFS even if fs_passno is set (closes: #240470)

* Support for root on devices with a dynamic major, such as
LVM and partitionable RAID. If the root device in /etc/fstab doesn't
match up with the actual root device, we try to create a temporary
device node in /dev/shm/root so fsck and remount rw can be done.
* Use lstat() instead of stat() in the mountpoint(8) utility.
* Fix checkroot devfs behaviour.
* Hmm, /usr/bin/test -w works to check if a filesystem is readonly,
but bash's built-in doesn't. Work-around with touch -a.
* /lib/init/readlink was completely broken, argh. Fixed borkenness.
Also changed behaviour so that readlink -ff is equivalent to realpath,
and -f doesn't insist on the path being a symlink. (closes: #238611)
* Removed one more init_setenv debug message from init.c
* Move mountpoint and readlink to initscripts, so that initscripts
doesn't have to depend on a specific version of sysvinit anymore
(closes: #239059)

* Change -name x into -path ./x in bootclean.sh (closes: #193627)
* Remove /usr/local from bootlogd path, move /sbin:/bin to the
front of the PATH. /usr/bin:/usr/sbin is kept around because the
stop action needs it for savelog. (closes: #230763)

Libc6 does this too with a script called mountkernfs which is called
later, but that shouldn't matter. Libc6 must remove it later on.
Perhaps we should remove the symlink - I'm not sure.
* Add /etc/default/{devpts,tmpfs} to initscripts. Add Replaces: libc6,
libc6.1 to control for initscripts.

readlink has the features we need.

the runlevel can't be determined is to call shutdown.
* Updated README and skeleton
* Depends on new dpkg for the new update-rc.d
* Added re-exec patch from Al Viro (21 Feb 1998):
'U' flag added to telinit. It forces init to re-exec itself
(passing its state through exec, certainly).
May be useful for smoother (heh) upgrades.

sysvinit (2.66-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* Skipped 2.65. A development 2.65 got out by accident and is apparently
being used..
* New source format
* Also compiles and runs with GNU libc (and on the Alpha)
* Fixed dowall.c not to exit when getpwuid() fails and uid == 0.
* Fixed init panic'ing on empty lines in /etc/inittab
* Changed default PATH to include /usr/local/sbin
* Set /dev/console as controlling terminal for sysinit,bootwait,wait,powerwait
This allows using ^C to interrupt some parts of eg the boot process.
* Remove old symlink in /var/log/initlvl; let init check both
/var/log and /etc itself.
