I am curious, what is the motivation for this change?
Various levels of breakage in having on chkconfig style script owning
multiple daemons. Move to a more per daemon init script and have
/sbin/ command to stop/start them all at once if needed once booted
up. Allow for the daemons to start cleanly also when switching run
levels. Michael Mraka had 3 bugs and so tackled the issue by
re-factoring this structure.
A suggestion (which I hope made it into bugzilla) was made last week
to put a simple echo "please use the /sbin/ .. " command now when
attempting to run /etc/init.d/rhn-satellite.
Do you see something 'bad' in this? Or just wondering about why?
I don't see it as a bad change, if bugs were fixed then this is a good
thing. Monitoring scripts and clustering applications will have to
change. Also, /sbin is not a typical location for init scripts. That
is why I was curious.
Why can't this can't be dealt with by multiple-init scripts with
dependencies?
I don't like the idea of init.d scripts that don't have a function being
installed by an RPM either.
