Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.22
Severity: wishlist
To be able to check boot script order, and also to be able to start
boot scripts in parallel, it is important to know the dependencies of
the various boot scripts. The Linux Software Base specifies a init.d
header file format useful for this purpose, and adding such header to
all scripts in /etc/init.d would make it possible to use this
information to check the current sequence and speed up the debian
boot. Many maintainers forget to add LSB compliant headers in their
init-scripts and this could be avoided if lintian detected this fault.
<URL:http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts>
explains how to make an LSB-compliant script with Debian and a current
status of LSB-compliance of init-scripts is available a
<URL:http://initscripts-ng.alioth.debian.org/soc2006-bootsystem/lsblist.html>
Currently there is a script in perl to check LSB compliance in:
<URL:http://initscripts-ng.alioth.debian.org/soc2006-bootsystem/code/checkLSB>
which is intended to be expanded to a lintian patch for the Deliverable
5 of the project "Improving the debian boot" in
<URL:http://initscripts-ng.alioth.debian.org/soc2006-bootsystem/>.
I am using Debian GNU/Linux Unstable, kernel 2.6.16-2-486
cheers,
Carlos Villegas

Changes:
lintian (1.23.24) unstable; urgency=low
.
The "LSB init script" release
.
* checks/control-files:
+ [RA] perm2oct definition moved to Util.pm.
* checks/cruft{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Remove the (info-level) check for .cvsignore files in the
source tarball. This isn't an error; those files contain metadata
that may be useful for people making modifications and it's quite
common to distribute them.
* checks/debconf{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Diagnose unknown priorities in db_input and db_text
invocations. Patch from Thomas Huriaux. (Closes: #386014)
* checks/fields{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Depending on versioned variants of python-minimal is also an
error. Thanks, Adeodato Simó. (Closes: #384476)
* checks/files:
+ [RA] perm2oct definition moved to Util.pm.
* checks/init.d{.desc,}:
+ [RA] Added a warning for init scripts missing an LSB keyword
section, checks of the syntax of such a section if present, and
some basic semantic checks of the easiest fields. Based on initial
work by Carlos Villegas. (Closes: #377740)
* checks/menus:
+ [RA] perm2oct definition moved to Util.pm.
* checks/scripts:
+ [RA] Properly concatenate the dependencies for a package when
checking whether the dependency for an interpreter is included.
Thanks, Vincent Danjean. (Closes: #385178)
* checks/shared-libs:
+ [RA] perm2oct definition moved to Util.pm.
.
* lib/Util.pm:
+ [RA] Move perm2oct to here and improve recognition of s, S, t, and T
characters. Thanks to Justin B. Rye for patch. (Closes: #376119)
