Keybukmbiebl: did your upstart packages never make it through Debian NEW?08:22
mbieblYes, they were rejected because the Conflicted with sysvinit.08:23
Keybukinteresting...08:23
Keybukwho rejected them?08:23
KeybukRandom-J?08:23
mbiebljvw08:23
Keybuk*nods*08:23
mbieblIt's because sysvinit is essential.08:23
Mdmbiebl: will you use diversions then?08:23
Keybukarguably, sysvinit should not be Essential08:23
mbieblMd, yes I'll use that for the meantime and target experimental first.08:24
Mdbe prepared for a world of pain. m-i-t was not fun...08:24
mbieblKeybuk: Yes, but this won't change for etch.08:24
mbieblMd: I don't like this idea either.08:25
mbieblOn the other hand that seems to be the only way to get upstart into the archive now.08:25
=== Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #upstart
Keybukmbiebl: you targetted it to experimental, yes?08:28
mbieblThe one that got rejected? No, it was for unstable.08:29
Keybukahh08:30
Keybukif it were experimental, it may have got through08:30
Keybukthough one of jvw's comments amuses me08:30
mbieblPropably.08:31
mbieblwhich one?08:31
Keybuk- Being not yet an init replacement it's also of limited use yet,08:31
mbieblThis was a misunderstanding of jvw. He though upstart installed the init binary as /sbin/init and so was not a "drop-in" replacement, yet.08:32
mbiebls#/sbin/init#/sbin/upstart#08:32
Keybukso he rejected it coming AND going?08:33
Keybukhe rejected it for not replacing /sbin/init and for replacing it? :p08:33
mbieblThe main point was, that upstart conflicted with sysvinit, which is essential and that's not allowed by policy.08:34
Keybukheh08:34
Keybukso is it Debian policy that they will never allow sysvinit to be replaced?08:34
Mdnot in etch, and in etch+1 it may still be hard08:35
mbieblAs long as the essential tag is not removed from sysvinit, yes.08:35
mbieblI made a proposal, how we could deal with this by introducing a new base package called "init"08:37
mbieblwhich is essential and depends on "sysvinit | init-system".08:37
mbieblThis package would be essential and the essential flag from sysvinit would be removed.08:37
=== ..[topic/#upstart:Keybuk] : Upstart 0.3.0 | http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | http://upstart.ubuntu.com/doc/getting-started.html | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartDesignChanges | irc logs: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs | http://www.lugradio.org/episodes/61 | http://enterprise.linux.com/enterprise/06/09/18/1623244.shtml
mbieblOther sysvinit replacements (like upstart, runit etc.) could then add a Conflicts/Replaces/Provides: init-system.08:38
mbieblI hope to get that done for etch+1.08:39
Keybukthe interesting trick will be complying with the invoke-rc.d/update-rc.d policy :)08:39
mbieblYes, the "init" package would provide invoke-rc.d/update-rc.d as mere wrappers.08:39
Keybukbut how do they work in upstart?08:40
mbieblThe init systems would install the actual implementation.08:40
Keybuk"stop 0 23" doesn't mean much08:40
Keybukanyway, dinner, bbl08:40
mbieblMd, I have asked jvw if he'd accept an upstart package in experimental which does not use diversions but Conflicts/Replaces: sysvinit.08:42
mbieblHe hasn't answered yet.08:42
mbieblDepending on his answer I'll decide to use diversions or not.08:42
