Package: lightdm
Version: 0.9.2-1
Severity: minor

Hi,

I think the problem is that the lightdm package installs an upstart init
script. /usr/sbin/service thinks upstart is available and fails to start
lightdm:

fernando@munchkin:~$ sudo service openntpd restart
Restarting openntpd: ntpd.
fernando@munchkin:~$ sudo service lightdm restart
exec: 129: restart: not found
fernando@munchkin:~$ 

I guess this bug could also have been filed against sysvinit-utils, but
on the other hand, I'm not sure we're supposed to be shipping upstart
init files yet. The "service" utility has no problem whatsoever with
packages that ship systemd init files (and it works with systemd), but
seems to choke on upstart init files.

Thanks in advance,

Yes, it is; and this is a duplicate of bug #636054.  Any ETA for this
reaching unstable?  When I committed it to the git trunk I assumed that was
where it would be targeted for upload.
