  • Bug#265801: bootlogd stops too early

    From dean gaudet@1:229/2 to All on Sun Aug 15 05:10:06 2004
    From: [email protected]

    Package: initscripts
    Version: 2.86-1

    S99stop-bootlogd runs before S99xdm ... a hack fix would be to use S99zzz-stop-bootlogd.

    I'd say that's a bug in xdm, it should be at S95 or so.

    there are other S99 scripts as well... on my systems i find:

    S99fetchmail
    S99rmnologin
    S99stop-bootlogd
    S99xdm

    it's really only by luck that S99stop-bootlogd is almost last. that's why
    i suggested fixing bootlogd rather than trying to discover all the other
    S99s and change them.

    But that is what should be done. Policy says that if you use non-standard start/stop levels, you have to discuss that with the sysvinit maintainer. Nobody appears to do that. Bootlogd is part of sysvinit, so it's start/stop level has been discussed with the maintainer, so it is correct. All the
    others are incorrect.

    The question is, what is a "manamanap".
    The question is, who cares ?
