init-system-helpers 1.40 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

init-system-helpers (1.40) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * update-rc.d: Add fallback if insserv is not available.
    If insserv is not available, we are either under systemd or a chroot,
    where the rc?.d/ link priorities don't matter, so create the
    /etc/rc?.d/[SK]01<name> links with a hardcoded "01" priority.
    Drop insserv dependency again.
  * invoke-rc.d: Add SysV fallback for "systemctl is-enabled".
    Version 1.35 switched to "systemctl is-enabled" to determine if a service
    is enabled. This also has worked for SysV init scripts since systemd 220-1
    (via the systemd-sysv-install wrapper), but does not yet work under
    Jessie's systemd 215. Add a fallback to checking runlevel symlinks (for
    any runlevel) to fix upgrades where init-system-helpers gets upgraded
    before systemd, and to make i-s-h backportable to Jessie.
    (Closes: #830982)

  * invoke-rc.d: Drop fallback code for ancient upstart versions.
    Even wheezy ships a version >= 0.9.7.
  * invoke-rc.d: Only consider the enabled-state for start and restart.
    We should not deny other actions, like status, stop or reload on
    disabled services.
  * invoke-rc.d: Don't check the enabled state twice.
    On start|restart we already enforce the local policy and RC will be set
    to 101, if the service was disabled.
    Also, checking for the output of "systemctl --quiet is-enabled" is
    problematic, as it is currently broken for non-native services [1].
    So drop it completely.

  * invoke-rc.d: Allow restarting disabled-but-running services.
    Restart services that are disabled but have been started manually.
    A start request for a running service is a nop under systemd, so we
    don't need to handle start and restart separately.
