Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: upstart
First, upstart shows non-understandable cryptic messages like:
r...@slim:/home/midenok# start timidity
timidity start/running, process 3746
So it was started or running?
r...@slim:/home/midenok# start timidity
start: Job is already running: timidity
Aha, now it is running, so first time it was started.
r...@slim:/home/midenok# stop timidity
timidity stop/waiting
So is it stopped or what? What is 'waiting' for?
r...@slim:/home/midenok# stop timidity
stop: Unknown instance:
Guess what this means -- the service already stopped.
Second, it is highly non-verbosive.
When starting from terminal, you don't see any job messages. They are gone, in
better case showing to 'console output',
There is no command-line option like 'start --verbose' to show job output
STDOUT and STDERR to terminal (not to console).
Third, there is no short options. Which is weird for core system
utility.
