Package: lsb
Version: 3.2-28.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi there,

Please find attached a patch for lsb that adds a new helper function to
/lib/lsb/init-functions to support maintainer scripts that should behave as
no-ops because the package is upstart-aware and upstart is in use.

I'm proposing this change in support of bug #591791, a bug against
debian-policy which aims to come up with coherent rules about the inclusion
of native upstart jobs in Debian.  This is not a very high-level
abstraction, it still requires the init script to work out the correct
return value for each invocation.  That's about as high-level as most of
the other lsb functions get anyway, but if you'd like something different
I'm certainly open to discussing.

Thanks for considering,
