I think you may be confused here. The scripts have been upstream for years. In fact for many years they were the *only* upstream init scripts. https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/tree/master/etc/init.d has them, last modified 2 years - 3 months ago. That is upstream. They were successfully shipped in the upstream debian packages until debian finally accepted a native package. We have been trying to get the sysv scripts added back in since then. The patch from Chris Dos does not add any init scripts, it only has them installed to the debian package and changes the location of 2 binaries to where debian put them. His patch only adds 30 lines to the debian build scripts almost all in debian/rules. How exactly do we bark this up upstream's tree? -chris zubrzycki - -- PGP ID: 0xA2ABC070 Fingerprint: 26B0 BA6B A409 FA83 42B3 1688 FBF9 8232 A2AB C070 ======================================================== Unix _IS_ user friendly...
