[Bug 1441051] [NEW] sysvinit scripts are not upstart compatible

 

Public bug reported:

Hello,

The current sysvinit scripts don't play nicely with Upstart. It appears
that there are specific steps to be taken to make sysvinit scripts
compatible with Upstart
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts). The bottom line
is that the init scripts have to call init_is_upstart and exit without
taking any action if running on an upstart system.

Best regards,
George
