Bug#670092: Please warn about any reference to /lib/init in init.d scripts
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.6
Severity: normal
/lib/init/rw has gone away, and the scripts in /lib/init/*.sh represent
internal implementation details of initscripts, *not* public API for
other packages to use. Nonetheless, some packages incorrectly reference
those scripts, notably /lib/init/vars.sh. Please consider adding a
warning for any reference to /lib/init in an init.d script.
Thanks,
Josh Triplett
