Bug#789604: release-notes: 'halt' behaviour changed without notice



Package: release-notes
Tags: patch
thanks

Hi,
I'm submitting this patch on the advice of the systemd maintainers.
Could this be applied to the jessie release notes?

I sent a separate patch for the installation-guide, #789652
Cheers
Vince
