Changes: 
 sysvinit (2.86.ds1-11) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Thomas Hood ]
   * rcS(5): Improve
   * sulogin(8): Improve; mention -t option  (Closes: #186880)
   * bootlogd(8): Improve; mention need for PTY support
   * initscripts postinst: Update to reflect script name changes
   * initscripts: Harmonize PATH settings
   * checkroot.sh: Don't check for need to start /sbin/update.
     We don't support pre-2.4 kernels any more.
   * checkroot.sh, mountall.sh: Run swapon with -v if VERBOSE!=no
   * Remove obsolete lintian overrides
   * Previous release also
     closes: #258290 "bootlogd: Bad file descriptor"
     closes: #327865 "bootlogd stopped working"
     closes: #328764 "bootlogd fails to start"
 .
   [ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
   * Time to upload all these changes into unstable  (Closes: #341075)
   * Revert default VERBOSE value to "yes" to reduce the amount of
     user visible changes in this upload.
 .
 sysvinit (2.86.ds1-10) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   [ Thomas Hood ]
   * 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.
   * Override lintian and linda warnings
 .
   [ Ubuntu backports by T.H. ]
   * During shutdown and reboot take the progress bar from 100 to 0
   * Reduce diff with 2.86.ds1-6ubuntu1
 .
   Thanks to Mark Hatle and Marco d'Itri for help with this release.

 sysvinit (2.86.ds1-9) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   [ 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)
 .
   Thanks to Mark Hatle for help with this release.

 sysvinit (2.86.ds1-8) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   [ Thomas Hood ]
   * Omit /run until we are sure it's needed  (Closes: #344001)
   * Previous release also
     closes: #338736 "mountvirtfs: Succeeds in various cases it should fail"
     closes: #342160 "checkroot.sh ignores fsck result"
     closes: #342744 "checkroot.sh sources mountvirtfs, yet supplies arguments"
   * Use /proc/mounts instead of /etc/mtab when unmounting  (Closes: #338801)
   * Check for files under mountpoints more thoroughly
   * initscripts.postinst:
     + Don't fail to install on file-rc systems  (Closes: #343993)
     + Don't fail to install in chroots  (Closes: #344089)
   * No longer keep the dynamic nologin flag file on the root filesystem;
     instead, keep it at /var/lib/initscripts/nologin.  Note to admins:
     initscripts's postinst symlinks /etc/nologin to the latter location.
     To switch login delaying on or off permanently, set DELAYLOGIN=no in
     /etc/default/rcS and either create or delete (respectively)
     /var/lib/initscripts/nologin.
   * mountvirtfs: Mount /dev/shm earlier; move long comment to README.Debian
   * Add 45_pidof_symlink.dpatch: Make pidof an absolute symlink
     (Closes: #343862)
   * debian/rules, 30_strip.dpatch: Strip .comment section from executables
     (Closes: #343863)
   * In umountfs, run umount with -f  (Closes: #344547)
 .
   [ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
   * Enable the startpar option as it should work now that .sh scripts
     are serialized.  The clock should no longer jump while startpar
     is used.
 .
 sysvinit (2.86.ds1-7) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   [ 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)
   * checkroot.sh: Only run findfs for mount on /  (Closes: #275680)
     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.
   * Improve skeleton initscript
   * all scripts: Clean up; standardize indentation
   * all scripts: Use the "which" program to test for executability
   * initscripts: Experimentally include /run; include /sys in Linux
     builds
   * mountvirtfs: Mount a tmpfs on /run
   * mountvirtfs: Warn if mount point has stuff under it (Closes: #95390)
   * 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)
   * init: 40_selinux.dpatch: Remove superfluous printf argument
   * init: Add 63_init_longer_procname.dpatch  (Closes: #336172)
   * init.8: Mention that entering runlevel 1 kills all processes
     (Closes: #238861)
   * update-rc.d.8: Mention that update-rc.d will not create multiple start
     or multiple stop symlinks for a service in a single runlevel directory.
     (Closes: #330155)
   * Update FSF address
