Package: ejabberd
Version: 2.1.10-4+deb7u1
Tags: patch
The ejabberd init script does not have a "status" action. This prevents it
from giving a meaningful response, for example, to "service --status-all".
Other tools out there (e.g. salt) also expect "status" to exist, though I
realize that doesn't mean "status" should definitively be implemented.
The attached patch simply adds a "status" action that simply uses "ctl
status" (i.e. ejabberdctl status) to check and report the status.
