It just needs doing.  But it requires coordinated uploads of
  initramfs-tools
  sysvinit
  util-linux
to get all the bits in place.  lamont was going to upload a
new util-linux to unstable in December but it hasn't happened
yet.  I was going to upload a test version of all three to
experimental for testing, which I can look at doing this
weekend.

 I believe there were reservations about /etc portions of the patch
 series, which were asked to be unbundled and to be considered
 separately. I don't know if this was done, if not I guess I should
 come up with such patch on top of the proposed patch series, as one of
 the interested parties to get this resolved.

The patch series includes the /etc bits in separate patches.  These
can just be ignored if not wanted; there is no further work required
from that point of view, I think.  Given that they won't be used by
default and are harmless, but do add interesting new capabilities,
I would like to see them used though.


Regards,
Roger

Move awk implementations from /usr/bin to /bin

2013-12-30 Thread Laurent Bigonville
Hello,

In order to fix #729704[0] (optional feature of /sbin/auditd using awk)
I would like to have awk (all the implementations) moved to /bin instead
of /usr/bin.

It seems that awk is already transitively Essential, so it might make
sense to move the binary in /bin.

This should probably be coordinated with the different implementations.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

Laurent Bigonville

It seems quite a bit easier to reimplement this awk snippet in bash.
