  * New upload with a clean .orig.tar.gz archive without the .o files.
    No other changes from 2.86-5.  Used the .ds naming convention
    that is suggested for packages which need to have their
    docs removed (thanks, Marc Haber)

  * Create dependencies on glibc (>= 2.3.2.ds1-12) not through the
    shlibs.local hack anymore. That might clash with a future system
    shlibs file. Use the same method as we use to generate the
    mount dependency - with a script (closes: #253314).
  * In checkroot.sh always use the two-argument version of mount
    so that mount doesn't confuse device and directory (closes: #254724)

  * Remove -e from mountvirtfs (closes: #232122)
  * Add some more comments/documentation to mountvirtfs
  * Initscripts depends on libc6 anyway right now, so we let it
    depend on libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-12) via shlibs.local
  * Suggest sysv-rc-conf (closes: #244643)
  * Updated french manpage for update-rc.d (closes: #245007)

  * Added GNU/Hurd and kFreeBSD fixes (closes: #246743)
  * Run mountvirtfs again at S36 so that it mounts /proc/bus/usb in
    case usb was loaded as a module (closes: #249031)
  * Don't mkdir /dev/pts if it's not there - and don't mount devpts
    filesystem on it either in that case. Should help udev.
  * mountvirtfs now uses the options from /etc/fstab (closes: #251016)

sysvinit (2.85-14) unstable; urgency=high

  * When remounting "/", just use "mount -n -o remount,rw /" and don't
    bother with the device or other arguments - "mount" will look up the
    root device in /etc/fstab, but the device argument to the mount
    system call is ignored by the kernel for remount anyway. So this
    doesn't hurt even if the device is incorrect, and it fixes a
    platform dependant case where "mount -n -o remount,rw <whatever> /"
    fails with "mount: you must specify the filesystem type". That
    is a bug in mount(8): if you don't specify the type, it passes
    garbage to the kernel, and some archs choke on that.
    (closes: #239735)
  * change checkroot.sh so that it never checks the root filesystem
    if root is on NFS even if fs_passno is set (closes: #240470)
  * Reckognize type "nfs4" as network filesystem
  * Better check for file-rc in postinst of initscripts (closes: #240066)
  * Use /proc/sys/kernel/random/poolsize in urandom script (closes: #240057)
  * Applied Debian/KFreeBSD patches. Moved initctl to /etc/.initctl
    for the FreeBSD kernels. (closes: #226939)

sysvinit (2.85-12) unstable; urgency=low

  * Support for root on devices with a dynamic major, such as
    LVM and partitionable RAID. If the root device in /etc/fstab doesn't
    match up with the actual root device, we try to create a temporary
    device node in /dev/shm/root so fsck and remount rw can be done.
  * Use lstat() instead of stat() in the mountpoint(8) utility.
  * Fix checkroot devfs behaviour.
  * Hmm, /usr/bin/test -w works to check if a filesystem is readonly,
    but bash's built-in doesn't. Work-around with touch -a.
  * /lib/init/readlink was completely broken, argh. Fixed borkenness.
    Also changed behaviour so that readlink -ff is equivalent to realpath,
    and -f doesn't insist on the path being a symlink. (closes: #238611)
  * Removed one more init_setenv debug message from init.c
  * Move mountpoint and readlink to initscripts, so that initscripts
    doesn't have to depend on a specific version of sysvinit anymore
    (closes: #239059)
  * Make initscripts non-essential (needed for Hurd) (closes: #219969).
  * Remove period from short description (closes: #239098)
  * Improved handling of /etc/nologin symlink  (closes: #184402)
  * Make sure 'skeleton restart' restart the service even if it is not
    running in accordance to policy 3.5.9.0 (closes: #184342)
  * Change -name x into -path ./x in bootclean.sh (closes: #193627)
  * Remove /usr/local from bootlogd path, move /sbin:/bin to the
    front of the PATH. /usr/bin:/usr/sbin is kept around because the
    stop action needs it for savelog. (closes: #230763)
  * Remove x bit from bootclean.sh (closes: #230762)
  * Consolidate variables in skeleton (closes: #122486)
  * Move set -e up in skeleton (closes: #148847)
  * Include spanish manpage for update-rc.d (closes: #209199)

    more correct version of realpath() than glibc (famous last words).

  * Provide mountvirtfs. It mounts /proc,/sys, etc at early boot.
    Libc6 does this too with a script called mountkernfs which is called
    later, but that shouldn't matter. Libc6 must remove it later on.
    Perhaps we should remove the symlink - I'm not sure.
  * Add /etc/default/{devpts,tmpfs} to initscripts. Add Replaces: libc6,
    libc6.1 to control for initscripts.
  * Add /lib/init/readlink which we can use until the standard
    readlink has the features we need.
  * Fix maxproclen issue (closes: #236138)
  * Remove INIT_HALT debug message (closes: #230743)
  * When cleaning /tmp, don't look at directory atime for aging info
    (closes: #236709,#205486,#221622)

  * Depend on mount (>= 2.11l-1) for the -l option (closes: #217702)
  * Mount non-/ proc filesystems in mountall.sh. This will not work
    if you want to mount /foo/bar/proc if /foo/bar is an NFS filesystem,
    but this will do for now (closes: #234152)

  * Don't use /etc/initlvl interface for telinit; only use /dev/initctl,
    and give a clear error when that fails (closes: #116829)
  * Add -i/--init command line flag to init - this tells init
    'behave as system init even if you're not PID#1'. Useful for
    testing in chroot/jail type environments.
  * Use --print-installation-architecture in postinst instead of
    --print-architecture.

  * Don't disable write caching on IDE disks before unmounting file
    systems, since that flag is kept over reboot. Instead the

    the write-cache. That flag is used in /etc/init.d/halt

  * Change behaviour of reboot(1) and halt(1) so that the default when
    the runlevel can't be determined is to call shutdown.
  * Updated README and skeleton
  * Depends on new dpkg for the new update-rc.d
  * Added re-exec patch from Al Viro (21 Feb 1998):
        'U' flag added to telinit. It forces init to re-exec itself
        (passing its state through exec, certainly).
        May be useful for smoother (heh) upgrades.

        did_boot made global and added to state - thanks, Miquel.
        Yet another file descriptors leak - close state pipe if

  * Fixed sulogin check on tty arg.
  * Use strerror() instead of sys_errlist

    take some liberties so they are called with the argument "stop" even
    though the scripts are Sxx scripts .. (start scripts in runlevel 0&6
    seem non-intuitive anyway)
  * wall now supports a '-n' option to suppress [most of] the banner.
