  * Medium urgency as it solve an RC bug in etch.
  * New upload, this time with only the files included in svn, and without
    the cruft included by mistake last time.  No idea why svn-buildpackage
    didn't behave as I expected it to.

  * Medium urgency as it solve an RC bug in etch.
  * Replace 66_init_emerg_tty patch with one only creating a new
    session group when sulogin is called directly from init, and not
    as part of the runlevel start scripts, to avoid leaving the single
    user shell behind when switching runlevel.  Updated patch from Samuel
    Thibault. (Closes:406587)
  * Speed up shutdown 1 second by dropping sleep 1 in init.d/halt

  * 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.

  * 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)

  * 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.

  * 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.

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.

  * 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)

    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

    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)

  * Also create possibly non-existant parent directory of lock directory
    /var/run/network/mountnfs in ifup script.  Patch from Arjan

    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

    - 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

  * 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)

    - 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.

  * Rewrote init.d/rc to avoid error from ls when no start or stop
    script is present in one rcX.d directory.
  * Updated the startpar source to version 0.49 from
    <URL:ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/init/>.  Still hanging the
    boot on my test machine, so it is not included in the binary
    package.  Added 01_enable_startpar.dpatch to document how to

  * This package is now maintained on Alioth as the pkg-sysvinit project.
  * Add myself as uploader.
  * Add support for linprocfs on kFreeBSD. Patch from Robert
    Millan. (Closes: #300963)
  * Rewrote /etc/mtab handling in mountvirtfs to work with SELinux.
    Based on patch from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton.
    (Closes: #270919)
  * Add SELinux support to sysvinit on linux.  Add build-depend on
    libselinux1-dev and libsepol1-dev for all linux archs.  Patch from
    Manoj Srivastava, based on patch from Fedora.  (Closes: #242900,
    #249515,#315611)
  * Drop redundant build-depend on essensial package bash.
  * Add version 0.47 of startpar(8) program from SuSe.  Part of
    experimental parallel booting system.  Not included by default
    yet, as it tend to hang during boot.
  * Add support for starting init.d scripts on the same level in
    parallel, to speed up the boot process a bit.  Currently, only a
    simple system is implemented (and enabled by adding
    CONCURRENCY=shell in /etc/default/rcS).  This simple system messes
    up the script output during boot.  Disabled by default.  (Closes:
    #316290)
  * Add 'kdm xdm gdm $syslog' as conditional dependencies of
    rmnologin, to move it further back in the boot process.
  * Make sure bootlogd return non-error exit code after forking off
    the child.  (Closes: #326640)
  * Add more warning flags to list of compiler flags, to get more
    info about problematic code.
  * Avoid race-condition while fork()ing.  Patch from SuSe.

    some mount points already was mounted.
  * Updated Standards-Version to 3.6.2.1 (no changes needed).

  * 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.

  * Support for root on devices with a dynamic major, such as
    LVM and partitionable RAID. If the root device in /etc/fstab doesn't

sysvinit (2.74-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Should compile with glibc 1.99 :)
  * Now confirms to policy manual 2.4.0.0
  * Change behaviour of reboot(1) and halt(1) so that the default when
    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.
        24 Feb 1998, AV:
        did_boot made global and added to state - thanks, Miquel.
        Yet another file descriptors leak - close state pipe if
        re_exec fails.
  * Now no longer contains mdutils.sh and conflicts with older mdutils
  * /etc/rc.S/*.sh scripts that use set -e or exit no longer stop
    the whole boot process.
  * Fixes:
    #16082: sysvinit: filesystems do not get unmounted properly on shutdown
    #16977: sysvinit: libc6 twice into Pre-Depends
    #17012: sysvinit: minor typo in install
    #17084: /etc/rcS does not use a start arg

sysvinit (2.73-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Use siginterrupt, now that system calls are restarted by default.
    Main symptom was that the sulogin timeout didn't work but there
    might have been more hidden problems.
  * Kill process immidiately if turned off in inittab
  * Fixed sulogin check on tty arg.
  * Use strerror() instead of sys_errlist
  * Chop up the reboot and halt scripts into seperate scripts. I had to
    take some liberties so they are called with the argument "stop" even
    though the scripts are Sxx scripts .. (start scripts in runlevel 0&6
    seem non-intuitive anyway)
  * wall now supports a '-n' option to suppress [most of] the banner.
    Debian doesn't use sysvinit's wall, but apparently Redhat does.
  * Add '-F' (forcefsck) option to shutdown
  * Depends on kbd_0.95-2 (or higher) package for /etc/rcS.d stuff.
  * Close and reopen /dev/initctl on SIGUSR1 (mainly for a /dev in ram)
  * Add FSCKFIX option to /etc/default/rcS
  * Wrote rcS.5 manpage describing /etc/default/rcS
  * Fixes bugs:
    #13435: Could shutdown provide a way to force fsck?
    #14108: sysvinit: sulogin's timeout does not work anymore
    #14179: sysvinit: /etc/init.d/(halt|reboot) need to call mdstop
    #14357: sysvinit: typo errors into script shells
    #15010: shutdown is too fast
