Public bug reported:
service --status-all reports some service status lines on stdout, others
on stderr.
noticable and problematic especially when piping to less/grep/etc.
presumably this is because it's calling multiple individual scripts each
generating their own output to inconsistent destinations.
workaround is to remember to 2>&1, but that is dumb; if the scripts
can't be made consistent then perhaps service(8) can at least do this
internally?
12.04 current dist-upgrade as of today
