Package: lsb-base Version: 3.1-10 Followup-For: Bug #374780 The init-functions script already sources a file (/etc/lsb-base-logging.sh, really should be in /etc/default, but whatever - that's a seperate bug report). The following patch allows a local admin to turn off fancy_output by setting FANCYTTY=0 in /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh
Thanks,
