My major point here was precisely that you are *not* done with just writing the service/job descriptions/scripts for all those init systems. You'd likely have to patch every single daemon to enable the socket activation method for those init systems, that the authors of your daemon did not like to use. If on the other hand you omit this patching, then that init system partially loses one of its selling points. So instead of supporting one init system properly, we support four init systems poorly. What you are proposing is no solution. Helmut -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
