for the patch. LP: #1536353
* Added Conflicts/Replaces against cups-filters-invalid-mta and
cups-filters-lsb for upgrade compatibility from the Xenial development
cycle.
* 01-upstart-lsb: when diverting an init script to an upstart job, we
can't directly map the 'status' subcommand to /sbin/status because the
return value of the latter is always 0 if we communicated successfully
with upstart. Instead, parse the output of the command to correctly map
this to the LSB return codes. LP: #1582813.

[ Didier Raboud ]
* Revert "Fix the remaining problems of initdutils.py python3 compatibility"

- Add a README.Debian to lsb-desktop to document the possibility to
install Qt3 from snapshot.debian.org;
- Add a NEWS.Debian to lsb-desktop to document the derogation to the
LSB 4.1 specification.
* Accept utf-8 in `apt-cache policy` and `dpkg-query` outputs; add
test-case. (Closes: #675618)
* Revert "Allow FANCYTTY to be sourced from /etc/default/rcS." This
avoids one ugly `set +u` in the $() subshell and avoids the hijack
of /etc/default/rcS. (Reopens: #673207, Closes: #675162, #675197)
* lsb-base; init-functions:
- Correct comment about hooks.
- Enhance doc about files sourced from init-functions
- Allow FANCYTTY to be sourced from /etc/default/rcS. (Closes: #673207)

Instead of moving lsb-base-logging.sh to /etc/lsb/, drop the empty /etc/lsb.
(Closes: #671730)
[ Steve Langasek ]
* Add a new helper function: init_is_upstart().
init_is_upstart() is to be used by init scripts of upstart-aware packages to
render the init script inert when upstart is present.

* In killproc(), make sure to exit 0 when the program is not running
and when no signal was specified. (Closes: #668416)
* Fancy output: prepend [info] blocks to log_action_msg calls.
* Make the init.d scripts messages fancier by prepending them a [....]
block that becomes [ ok ], [warn] or [FAIL] depending on the daemons
exit statuses (Closes: #416485).

* Upload LSB 4.1 support to unstable.
* Add lsb-languages to lsb Depends.

the installation of LSB packages to not pull in an MTA any more,
which once adds awkward configuration questions to the installation
process and second adds an often unnneeded daemon to the system.

* Fix init-functions with set -e. (Closes: #472794)
Patch from Matthias Klose.
* Downgrade optional LSB modules to suggestions from main "lsb" package
(core LSB dependency for LSB 1.x); remove obsolete lsb-qt4 from its
dependencies.
* lsb-desktop now provides lsb-qt4*, essentially making lsb-qt4 a dummy
package.
* lsb-cxx: Don't depend on libstdc++5 on armel.
* Reverse test in killproc(). (Closes: #469404)
* Handle missing $sig in killproc() properly. (Closes: #469167)
* lsb_release -v now detects the lsb-qt4 version(s) installed correctly.
* New LSB version.
+ Add libpam0g, libncurses5 to lsb-base.
+ Add libqt4-gui, libfreetype6, libxrender1, libxft2 to lsb-desktop.
+ lsb-qt4 appears to be deprecated by the new lsb-desktop requirements.
+ Add new printing, multimedia, and languages modules.
* More killproc() fixes. (Closes: #453636)
* Use /etc/debian_version in preference to apt autodetection.
(Closes: #427221)
* Handle non-zero status from start-stop-daemon better. (Closes: #451532)
* All fancy output uses /bin/echo -e now. (Closes: #463082)
* Add/update translations:
fi (Closes: #447184)
ro (Closes: #468670)
ja (Closes: #462757)
pt (Closes: #439402)
* Ignore invalid lines in /etc/lsb-release. (Closes: #454352)
* Acknowledge NMU by Christian Perrier.
* Apply patch from Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña to improve release
detection. (Closes: #425627, #405993)
* lsb-release no longer recommends lsb. (Closes: #426807)
* Update debconf templates per Smith project. (Closes: #422973)
* Add/update translations:
Vietnamese (Closes: #426834)
Galician (Closes: #423685)
Swedish (Closes: #423904)
Czech (Closes: #425154)
Italian (Closes: #425258)
Dutch (Closes: #425710)
French (Closes: #426105)
Malay (Closes: #426237)
German (Closes: #426599)
Russian (Closes: #426741)
Arabic (Closes: #423616)
Spanish (Closes: #423815)
* Don't remove the pidfile in killproc if a signal is specified; the
specification does not specify this behavior, and it can cause
problems with signals like HUP. (Closes: #416559)
* And then, only remove the pidfile if the process is actually dead.
(Closes: #410622)
* Update codename for testing. (Closes: #425646)
* Non-maintainer upload to fix pending l10n issues.
* Debconf translations:
- Portuguese. Closes: #408177
- Convert PO files to UTF-8, except Japanese
* Remove the pidfile in killproc() if successful. (Closes: #400261)
* Recommend apt in lsb-release; lsb-release can work without it, so
no need to make it a hard dependency. (Closes: #399991)
* Fix missing paragraph break in lsb_release(1). (Closes: #399989)
Above two fixes courtesy of Julian Gibney.
* Add Romanian and Spanish translations of debconf templates.
(Closes: #403421, #403527)
* Fix crash when the Debian release is identified from
/etc/debian_version and there is no corresponding codename (reported
by Riku Voipio as a result of buildd failures).
* log_use_fancy_output() had unintended behavior under set -e.
(Thanks to Steve Langesek for the heads-up.)
* lsb_release changes: Improve parsing of apt-cache policy output to be
more flexible; deal with stable revisions in the codename lookup.
* The "hopefully we can push this into testing now that the bugs are all
shaken out, maybe" release.
* Don't use --name in killproc() when a pidfile is provided; thanks to
Timo Reimann for the patch. (Closes: #397977)
* Give lsb_release's heuristics priority over whatever is in
/etc/debian_version; note that /etc/lsb-release will override both and
should be supplied by derived distributions. (Closes: #396853)
* Now try the eval hack in start-stop-daemon, since nothing else seems
to work. (Closes: #388836)
* etch will be Debian 4.0, not Debian 3.2. (Closes: #395004)
* Don't quote $@ in start-stop-daemon calls, which should resolve issues
with multiple/quoted arguments to the daemon in start_daemon().
(Closes: #388836)
* Revert to testing for a fancy TTY before trying to call tput and friends,
to avoid crap spewage on shutdown. (Closes: #390363, #391981)
* Set FANCYTTY to a null string to cope with init scripts that for some
reason seem to use set -u. (Closes: #390085)
* Improve documentation of killproc(). (Closes: #384814)
* Also improve documentation of pidofproc() in the same vein.
* Move lsb_release to /usr. (Closes: #389380)
* Modify log_use_fancy_output() to only test once for a fancy TTY; patch
by Brendan O'Dea. (Closes: #389497)
* Fix semantics of killproc() to behave properly when $sig is specified.
(Closes: #389403)
* Fix assignment to $opt in pidofproc(). (Closes: #384540)
* Document LSB init functions more thoroughly in lsb-base's README.Debian.
(Closes: #382597)
* More tweaks to the getopts calls, to ensure that OPTIND is reset on
each call. (See #381822)
* Revert log_end_msg() change. (Closes: #381814)
* killproc() returns 0 if a signal is not specified and the program
is not running. (Closes: #379387)
* Divert output in pidofproc test to /dev/null. (Closes: #381821)
* Test tput setaf 1 in log_use_fancy_output(). (Closes: #375644)
* Fix call to getopts in start_daemon to properly work with command
options. (Closes: #381822)
* Patch for other architectures from Martin Habets
<mhabets@mph.eclipse.co.uk> (closes: #375457)
* Stop using basename: patch from Tore Anderson <tore@debian.org>
(closes: #354028)
* Move return code evaluation out of if $specified block in killproc, so
that evaluation is dependant on whether or not process is running, not on
whether a pidfile was specified (closes: #379387)
* log_end_msg no longer returns non-zero. It's a log function, after all
(closes: #381687)
* log_use_fancy_output is now overridable by admin (closes: #374780)
* pidofproc actually checks if process is running (closes: #381684)
(probably closes: #167757)
* Use shell built-in getopts instead of /usr/bin/getopt (closes: #335216)
* Remove reference to /usr/share/doc/lsb-core/html/ (closes: #380045)
* Ru translation (thanks: Yuri Kozlov <kozlov.y@gmail.com>)
(closes: #380430)
* Above changes prepared by Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org>.
* Update debian/TODO, which was a wee bit out of date.
* Accomplish Python policy transition. (Closes: #380858)
* Quote tests of $specified. (Closes: #370256)
* Add missing < "$pidfile" to read in pidofproc(). (Closes: #370155)
* Fix killproc() to work if signal isn't specified; also fix the
pidfile check in both killproc() and pidofproc(). (Closes: #370075)
* lsb-graphics: Depend on libx11-6 | xlibs. (Closes: #369955)
* Replace uses of $n with ${n:-} where $n could be unbound.
(Closes: #369193)
* Use pidof only if pid file is not specified. (Closes: #365736)
* Remove /usr/X11R6/bin from lsb-core, since I'm pretty sure it's not
strictly necessary for LSB compliance and it breaks x.org 7.0.
(Closes: #365264)
* Bump priority since (a) these changes are trivial and (b) 3.1-3 was
two days from testing.
* lsb-desktop: also depend on fontconfig (for fc-* binaries).
* Add Galician debconf translation. (Closes: #361938)
* Fix dependency on libgtk2. (Closes: #361879)
* Upload lsb 3.1 support for unstable.
* Really create ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3 symlink. (Closes: #355959)
* First crack at a package for LSB 3.1.
* Add -desktop and -qt4 metapackages.
* Update README.Debian and control file for 3.1.
* Update lsb_release to recognize lsb-desktop and lsb-qt4 modules.
* Update FSF address in debian/copyright.
* Fix debian/control to allow sarge build.
* Add ld-linux-x64-64.so.3 symlink on AMD64. (Closes: #355959)
* Depends: ia32-libs -> libc6-i386, lib32z1 on AMD64. (Closes: #355388)
* On purge or upgrade from < lsb-release 3.0-8, remove /etc/lsb-release
if its md5sum is the same as that shipped in sarge. (Closes: #355377)
* Test $TERM in log_use_fancy_output; if it is "dumb" we don't have a
fancy TTY. (Closes: #350291)
* Better heuristics in lsb_release to guess whether we're running on
testing or unstable. (Closes: #95824, #341231)
Note that /etc/lsb-release, if present, will override these results,
and /etc/debian_version has priority.
* Fix lsb_release to allow multiple fields to be displayed (i.e.
lsb_release --id --codename).
* Allow lsb-base to be built on sarge. (Closes: #345984)
* The "answer all the questions in the changelog" release.
* Skip empty headers when parsing RFC822 headers for init scripts.
(Closes: #343310)
* The versioned dependency on dpkg-dev is due to the use of
DEB_*_ARCH_CPU in debian/rules, which only became available in dpkg
1.13.2. Feel free to submit a patch to facilitate a sarge backport.
(Closes: #344392)
* Since the lsb family of packages track an upstream specification with
"non-native" version numbering, the use of a hyphenated version number
for these native packages is justified. (Closes: #344384)
(Note that although it does violate policy for a non-native package to
lack a hyphen in its version number, the contrapositive case does not
violate policy.)
* Deal with missing /etc/debian_version. (Closes: #341719)
* Remove the pidfile in killproc(). (Closes: #321271)
* Declare $i local where it was previously omitted. (Closes: #340667)
* Fix syntax errors in init-skeleton. (Closes: #302009)
* Add sv.po. (Closes: #333595)
* Use the basename in killproc when calling start-stop-daemon.
(Closes: #332744)
* lsb-base conflicts/replaces lsb-core (<< 2.0-6). (Closes: #335798)
* Use --name instead of --exec in killproc(). (Closes: #332744)
* Fix silly Pythonic else in init-functions. (Closes: #329936)
* s/log_action_start_msg/log_action_begin_msg/ in README.Debian.
(Thanks to Marco d'Itri for pointing these two out.)
* If bits of /etc/lsb-release are missing (but not the whole file), use
detected information in its place.
* Bring in lsb-release (binary) package; rewritten to handle -v properly
for LSB 2.x and beyond.
* /etc/lsb-release is no longer provided by the lsb-release package;
it is probably best managed in base-files (which derived distros are
probably branding anyway).
* Update lsb-core dependencies to include:
ed (for /bin/ed)
bsdutils (for /usr/bin/logger)
cupsys-client | lprng (for /usr/bin/lp)
mailutils | mailx (for /usr/bin/mailx)
These are required in the final LSB 3.0 spec.
* Add ld-lsb.so.3 symlinks. (Closes: #326609)
* Use cat $pidfile instead of read. (Closes: #327405)
If someone knows why the convoluted read was used instead... let me know.
* Test for TPUT and friends as needed. (Closes: #327388, #327825)
* Add log_action_*(). (Closes: #324983)
* Edit README.Debian; fork off a README.Debian for lsb-base.
(Closes: #327525)
* The log_* functions can be overridden in /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh.
(Closes: #321963)
* Use --exec in calls to start-stop-daemon in killproc(). (Closes: #322770)
* Fix LIBC setting; add Alpha support. (Closes: #322316)
* Add support for PPC64. (Closes: #322293)
* Document usage of log_*_msg in README.Debian.
* Upload to unstable, since glibc 2.3.5 is now in.
* lsb-base is now Priority: important.
* Fix $FANCYTTY tests in a more POSIXly-correct way. (Closes: #322022)
* Get rid of the html/* stuff and references to it in README.Debian.
(Closes: #321260)
* Maintainers who are using the lsb-base logging facilities should
strongly consider using log_daemon_msg() instead of log_start_msg();
the new log_daemon_msg() is designed to meet both Debian and Ubuntu
logging requirements. Customization should come in a subsequent 3.0-x
release.
* Uploaded to experimental since glibc 2.3.5 is not in sid yet.
* Add /usr/lib/lsb/lsbinstall.
Note: the inetd stuff isn't implemented yet.
* Require glibc >> 2.3.5, since some interfaces in LSB 3.0 were
introduced by glibc 2.3.5.
* Require Python 2.3 or later, so we can use optparse.
* Fix test in pidofproc in /lib/lsb/init-functions. (Closes: #315067)
* Document /etc/profile.d lossage in README.Debian.
* Remove stale link in README.Debian. (Closes: #316064)
* Update German translation. (Closes: #313979)
* Add Vietnamese translation. (Closes: #312606)
* Updated description. (Closes: #318224)
* Use DEB_BUILD_ARCH_CPU instead of DEB_BUILD_ARCH.
* Call /bin/echo when using -e. (Closes: #320709)
* Kludge log_*_msg into being more policy-compliant and (in the case of
the LSB functions) more Debian-like.
* Add log_progress_msg. See spiffy example adapted from the Policy
Manual in init-functions. (Closes: #319739)
* lsb-cxx now depends on libstdc++6 as well as libstdc++5, necessitated
by LSB 3.0.
* Don't create /lib64 on AMD64. (Closes: #308220)
* Fix Replaces line to use the correct version in lsb-base.
(Closes: #301694, RC; Closes: #301747)
* Create lsb package in binary-indep step. (Closes: #297788)
* Merge /lib/lsb/init-functions from Ubuntu.
* Split /lib/lsb/init-functions into arch-all lsb-base package; this
functionality is thus available for use by other, non-LSB packages.
* Update README.Debian.
* Upload to unstable. (Closes: #278093)
* Ignore empty headers in init files. (Closes: #292835)
* Add Czech translation of the debconf messages. (Closes: #288015)
* Fix path of HTML docs in debian/doc-base.lsb-core (Closes: #278357)
* Fix x86-64 ls-lsb symlink. (Closes: #278093)
* Upload to experimental so we don't break lsb 2.0-1 in unstable as it
tries to migrate to sarge.
* Split into lsb-core, lsb-graphics, and lsb-cxx packages, leaving lsb
as a metapackage (lsb-graphics and lsb-cxx are also metapackages).
* Include /lib64 in the AMD64 package rather than running mkdir in the
postinst.
* Revise README.Debian for LSB 2.0 and the package split; ensure LSB
package install instructions are in the first page of text.
* Add lsb-core-{noarch,[arch]} Provides.
* Symlink ld-lsb.so.2 to appropriate dynamic linker.
* Add Japanese translation of debconf template. (Closes: #270926)
* Depend on ia32-libs on amd64. (Closes: #259976)
* Added Danish po file. (Closes: #234406)
* Added German po file. (Closes: #223120)
* Depend on exim4 | m-t-a instead of exim | m-t-a. (Closes: #228588)
* Conflict with libutahglx1 instead of depending on xlibmesa3-gl.
This will allow XFree86 4.3.0's libgl1 to be installed on the system.
* Move conflicts with Python to 2.5, since 2.4 is not expected to be
backwards incompatible with anything in the lsb package.
* Depend on alien 8.36 or later. (Closes: #220177)
* Depend on xlibmesa3-gl instead of libgl1. (Closes: #220523)
* If the pathname supplied to install_initd or remove_initd exists
relative to the cwd, use it rather than prepending /etc/init.d.
(Closes: #207851)
* Added notes for backporting to woody to README.Debian.
* Note in README.Debian that the --lsbsysinit option in /etc/crontab is
required for strict LSB compliance. (Closes: #214896)
* Re-enable $netdaemons facility in the "internal registry" again, as
gLSB 1.1 included it and some packages appear to still use it.
(Closes: #210578)
* Use ld.so.1 symlink instead of the glibc-version-dependent location
for s390. (Closes: #216824)
"cobaco":
* Add Dutch translation of debconf template. (Closes: #204921)
Matt Taggart:
* Add ia64 to description. (Closes: #207694)
Tobias Burnus:
* Provide a skeleton LSB init script. (Closes: #207715)
* Numerous improvements to init-functions. (Closes: #207639)
Me:
* Support broken uses of install_initd and remove_initd.
(See #207851; still pondering on start_daemon's behavior.)
* Depend on pax. (Closes: #203545)
* Add ld.so symlink for ia64. (Closes: #203541)
* Improved French translation. (Closes: #202692)
* Use iteritems instead of the default iterator when saving the
init script dependency dictionary. (Closes: #202012)
* Add a link to Matt Taggart's DebConf2 talk to README.Debian.
(Closes: #198600)
* Add French translation of debconf prompts. (Closes: #201626)
* First release of LSB 1.3 for Debian.
* Convert everything to Python 2.2+ style.
* Clean up the parsing of header lines to be fully compliant.
* Add po-debconf patch. (Closes: #186853)
* Don't retry if a signal specified in killproc. (Closes: #167759)
* Revise pidofproc to return a failure code if no pid found.
(Closes: #190719)
* Properly treat Required-Start and Required-Stop as strict dependencies
(install_initd will now fail if they cannot be fulfilled.)
* remove_initd will now fail if removing the init script would cause
another LSB package to be missing a dependency. (However, the
tracking for these dependencies was not done in the past. As this is
part of gLSB 1.9, this should not be a problem.)
* The previous two items were in a single report. (Closes: #198293)
* Support Should-Start and Should-Stop from gLSB 1.9. (Closes: #198277)
(A warning message will be output if a facility requested is unavailable.)
* Support -p argument to killproc, pidofproc and start_daemon, per gLSB 1.9.
(Closes: #197794)
* Set up the ld-lsb symlink in the postinst, so it can vary between
architectures, and remove in the prerm. (Closes: #183617)
Currently only defined for IA32 (i386), PPC32 (powerpc) and S390
(s390); please let me know the correct link for IA64 (ia64) and any
other ports that may be floating out there. (I'm only interested in
architectures that appear at http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/.)
* Purge the lsb registry on package removal.
* Depend on mawk | gawk; original-awk may not be SUS-compliant.
(See http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/refspecs/LSB_1.3.0/gLSB/gLSB/awk.html)
* Fix call to shadowconfig in postinst. (Closes: #166041)
* Add text to the debconf template that lets the user know that shadow
passwords are not needed by most LSB applications.
* Remove duplicate --retry 5 from start-stop-daemon call. (Closes: #165395)
* Fix bugs in the init script registry code. (Closes: #165038)
* Support more specifications for the signal in "killproc".
(Closes: #163109)
* Return non-zero exit status if "pidofproc" can't find the process.
(Closes: #157314)
* Fix silly typos in install_initd. (Closes: #152544)
* Fix duplicated --retry 5. (Closes: #152552)
* ADV: Matt Taggart will be giving a presentation on LSB in Debian at
Debconf2 on Sunday afternoon; your attendence and attentiveness is
strongly encouraged :-)
* First release of LSB 1.2 (hopefully-)compliant package.
* Added link to joeyh's LSB testing page to README.Debian.
* Revised README.Debian in light of LSB 1.2's improved verbiage.
* Added support for facilities introduced in gLSB 1.2. (Closes: #148568)
- $time: start >= S24, stop <= K21
- $portmap: start >= S19, stop <= K34
* Removed support for the $netdaemons facility, which vanished from the
specification. Hopefully nobody is using it...
* Call pidof if it's available and /var/run/$1.pid doesn't exist.
* Note that Debian's run-parts ignores certain lsb cron.* scripts, in
violation of the LSB specification. See #118646.
(If necessary, run-parts may be diverted by this package to conform.)
* Force removal of rc.d links in remove_initd. (Closes: #139400)
* Improve error handing in {install,remove}_initd when no argument is
specified.
* Fix minor syntax error in outputing the facilities file.
* Move facilities file handling into the initdutils module.
* Changed facilities file format to allow multiple init scripts to
provide the same facility w/o crashing.
* These changes should solve all the init script handing bugs; thanks to
Tobias Burnus <tburnus@physik.fu-berlin.de> for his testing.
* Fix typo in debian/rules. (Closes: #138945)
* Rewrite the init script handling to improve modularity.
* Fix typos in regexes in init script handling. (Closes: #138946)
* Fix remove_initd in line with the changes to install_initd.
* Fix typos in init functions. (Closes: #138766)
* Move init-functions to /lib/lsb. (Closes: #138762)
* Fix logic errors in start_daemon. (Closes: #138771)
* Fix init script header processing to accomodate minor deviations from
the LSB spec. (Closes: #138789)
* Include /usr/X11R6/bin to make the LSB test suite happy. Document
LSB's lack of specification of an X server or any clients as required
for compliance (hence making it odd that /usr/X11R6/bin would be
needed, as it could conceivably be empty). (Closes: #136713)
* Prompt on installation if shadow passwords appear to be disabled, and
enable them if requested. (Closes: #136806)
* Fix the spelling of Matt Taggart's name in README.Debian.
* Clean up directories to omit those present in current base-files.
* Rearrange README.Debian to put installation discussion near the top.
* Release candidate.
* Include HTML files from Matt Taggart <taggart@debian.org> comparing
the LSB spec to Debian.
* Clean up dependency list.
* Convert to arch-independent package.
* Add lsb(8) manpage.
* Update README.Debian and install_initd to implement a few changes:
- uid/gid for bin is documented.
- treat RL 2-5 as the same, because nothing else sensible seems
available.
* Initial Release. (Closes: #134658)
