Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: upstart

On Lucid with:

# apt-cache policy upstart
upstart:
  Installed: 0.6.5-4
  Candidate: 0.6.5-4
  Version table:
 *** 0.6.5-4 0
        500 http://apt.interlinx.bc.ca lucid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

during boot, upstart just seems to stop starting jobs.  A number of jobs
are started but all of the jobs that should be started never gets
complete.  I end up (though having a job that starts a shell on a tty)
having to manually:

# service ssh start
# service rc-sysinit start
(at least)

to get the system up into a semblance of a multi-user run-level.

I'd be happy to provide more information but I'm at a bit of a loss as
to how to debug this situation.

FWIW, my "debug shell" job which gives me a shell that I can debug
upstart from is:

description     "Start a debug shell"

start on startup

expect fork

script
    exec /root/open -c 12 /bin/bash
end script

I have no doubt it's probably not 100% correct as I'm really only just
cribbing it up from what I can see in other jobs.  Hopefully I have not
exacerbated the problem with that job.
