It looks like this: startpar -n -t 1 process-a process-b process-a: Starting process... process-b: Starting process... process-b: Done. process-a: Done. This will be in the next release of startpar. I'm looking at adding a newline to the end of output too. - Jesse

Okay, reassigning then. @Jesse, yet another feature request for startpar :) -- Note, that I send and fetch email in batch, once in a few days.

And (#398269) each line should be either from a process or the kernel, distinguishable enough. I fully agree, that should be basic and not need discussion. bye, //mirabilos -- «MyISAM tables -will- get corrupted eventually.

Perhaps make each line show who is doing the talking, and only one process allowed to print per line... That way it would be fine if several processes are talking to syslog at the same time. Just make sure it looks like an IRC log, one person per line. If they are still talking, then a second one of their lines will appear later. Or at least make sure a \n gets added to each line. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

reassign 588666 sysvinit-utils thanks > I don't understand the problem, as wicd and smartmontools both just > seem to use the standard log_daemon_msg in /etc/init.d/* . This is probably caused by startpar, which have a limit on how long it wait for a line printed by the subprocesses to complete. In this case, I guess smartmontools uses too long time, and thus startpar passes on incomplete lines causing such output. This is actually according to design of the parallel booting. I guess the timeout can be made longer, or smartmontools can be made faster. Reassigning to the package with startpar, to assign it to a package remotely related to this issue.
