sysvinit 2.88dsf-59.3ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

sysvinit (2.88dsf-59.3ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=low

  * Dropped various changes for invoke.rc which has moved to
    init-system-helpers.
  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Remove some initscripts (bootlogs, motd, rmnologin) and
      /etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs as they have been replaced by upstart jobs
      shipped in other packages.
    - debian/control: Drop Essential: yes from sysvinit-utils since we use
      Upstart.
    - debian/control: Do not build the sysvinit and sysvinit-core binary
      packages. We don't want to support sysvinit as such.
    - Mark sysvinit-utils as Multi-Arch: foreign to allow for upstart
      to be installable with multi-arch (needed for armhf containers on x86)
    - Drop /etc/default/tmpfs, and drop mention of it from
      debian/src/initscripts/man/rcS.5.
    - Include /lib/lsb/init-functions in various init.d scripts, or move it
      further to the top, so that they get skipped as there are equivalent
      upstart jobs.
    - Drop /lib/init/{tmpfs.sh,mount-functions.sh} and their usage in init.d
      scripts; we do not need those scripts due to the previous change.
    - Add debian/src/initscripts/etc/init.d/ondemand: Sleep for 60 seconds,
      then set CPU Frequency Scaling governor to "ondemand" (or to
      "interactive" on systems that support it).
    - Remove mention of RAMLOCK, RAMSHM, and RAMTMP from the rcS(5) manual
      page.
    - Fix documentation for other things handled by mountall/systemd instead
      of initscripts: tmpfs, /sys (mountall lets you specify options in
      /etc/fstab), and ASYNCMOUNTNFS.
    - debian/src/initscripts/etc/init.d/sendsigs:
      + sendsigs: OMITPIDS needs to be reinitalized for every loop iteration
        before concatenating pids of upstart jobs to it.
      + only omit jobs that are in the 'start' goal or that are in state
        'stop/killed'. Those that are destined for 'stop' are waited on and
        killed like all other processes.
      + make report_unkillable use apport instead of echoing to console; but
        disable this reporting by default.
      + wait up to 300 extra seconds for upstart jobs that have been killed.
    - Revert migration of UTC setting from /etc/default/rcS to /etc/adjtime.
    - init.d/rc: Disable startpar. It wreaks havoc with "task" upstart jobs as
      init.d scripts depending on them rely on them to be "running". Drop
      startpar dependencies.
    - debian/initscripts.postinst: Create /dev/shm directory with 1777
      permissions, so that chroots stay compatible to what you'd find on a real
      system. (LP: #1399772)
    - init.d/umountroot: If /var/run/init.upgraded exists, call telinit u
      before unmounting the root filesystem, to avoid an upgraded upstart
      holding open files on the root fs. (systemd isn't affected by this, so
      this can be dropped once we stop supporting upstart)

    Upgrade fixes, drop after 16.04:
    - debian/sysvinit-utils.maintscript: Clean up obsolete
      /etc/init/startpar-bridge.conf conffile on upgrades. (LP: #1390726)
    - debian/initscripts.postinst: In chroots without any bind mounts one
      often ends up with a /dev/shm → /run/shm → /dev/shm circular symlink.
      Break this and re-create /run/shm/ as a proper directory (note that the
      canonical location is in /dev, but
      https://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/RunDirectory is still the official
      policy). (LP: #1389891)
    - debian/sysv-rc.postinst: Bump version comparison for removing
      /etc/init.d/.legacy-bootordering to the Ubuntu version that enabled
      insserv.
