[12:45] <lericson> Guys, it would be helpful if upstart didn't ignore jobs with whitespace-only lines in them.
[12:53] <jhunt> lericson: ?
[12:54] <lericson> I don't have much further to add, this might be fixed in the latest version.
[12:55] <lericson> echo -e 'stop on runlevel [016]\n \nrespawn\nexec wait 100' >job.conf
[12:55] <lericson> should trigger it
[12:55] <lericson> apparently not
[12:56] <lericson> ok i don't really know what triggers it
[12:56] <lericson> this commit fixed it for me http://pb.lericson.se/p/BhCOQm/
[12:59] <jhunt> lericson: ? that change shouldn't make any difference.
[13:02] <lericson> wellp it did
[13:02] <lericson> also why can't I symlink job descriptions?
[13:02] <lericson> would be very convenient as we check our source out in /usr/local/share/
[13:03] <lericson> guess I could hardlink but that seems like the wrong kind of solution here
[13:31] <jhunt> lericson: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#symbolic-links-don-t-work-in-etc-init
[13:32] <jhunt> lericson: please could you raise a bug if the whitespace behaviour you are seeing is repeatable.
[13:33] <lericson> I am convinced, thank you
[13:34] <jhunt> the latest version of upstart does provide a --confdir=/usr/local/share but use at your own risk.
[13:35] <jhunt> also, you *could* make /etc/init/ a symbolic link to /usr/local/share, but again, you get to keep the pieces if your system breaks :)
[13:44] <lericson> not doing that, thank you very much :D
[13:44] <lericson> perhaps I should just make it part of my deploy step to copy new configuration files
[15:33] <SpamapS> lericson: that sounds like a plan
