[08:34] <AlexExtreme> tale_, the native upstart boot on feisty isn't enabled because the scripts haven't been written yet :) the developers decided to spend more time testing rather than just rush it to get it in. it will definitely be in feisty+1

[08:31] <sadleder> Keybuk: nomeata proposes "Instance-Capable Init Scripts" http://www.joachim-breitner.de/blog/archives/231-Debian-Ideas-Instance-Capable-Init-Scripts.html
[08:32] <sadleder> Keybuk: this could easily be done with different options per instance in upstart, if daemons support it
[08:43] <Keybuk> sadleder: I don't agree that it's as easy as he claims
[08:45] <sadleder> Keybuk: what do you mean?
[08:46] <Keybuk> well, take apache for example; you'd have to write a new apache configuration, and arrange directories for different pid/scoreboard files, log files, etc.
[08:51] <sadleder> well, sure, applications have to provide full support for that, but the upstart side could provide it.
[08:52] <Keybuk> it doesn't really seem like a useful thing to provide though?
[08:53] <Keybuk> every application would need the different options passed, and have different ways of finding out how many "instances" it needs
[08:53] <Keybuk> some might need to iterate a directory, some might have them all in one file, some might need entire directory structures, etc.
[08:54] <Keybuk> and tbh, since you've got to reconfigure the daemon anyway, why not copy the event.d file while you're at it?
[08:57] <sadleder> so you mean putting in a new event file is just enough.
[08:57] <sadleder> might be
[09:01] <sadleder> so just ignore what i said
[09:38] <AlexExtreme> Keybuk, did you see my post to the mailing list about disabling/enabling jobs? what did you think to my idea?
[09:39] <mbiebl> AlexExtreme: afaik Keybuk is averse to symlinks ;-)
[09:46] <Keybuk> allergic is the usual word :)
[09:48] <_ion> ln -s . this_dir
[09:51] <AlexExtreme> hmm :)
[09:52] <Keybuk> "." is a link anyway
