[File-rc-users] Bug#706651: The documentation is somewhat contradictory

severity 706651 normal
thanks


Hi,

In /usr/share/doc/file-rc/README is read

"No special tool required, you can use your favorite editor
to maintain the configuration manually."

but in /usr/share/doc/file-rc/NEWS.Debian.gz is read

"This means that the sequence numbers and runlevels
in /etc/runlevel.conf will be rewritten and will not preserve manual
changes made by the admin."

The documentation is a bit confusing and contradictory. I don't see the
point of doing changes that will be lost. It seems that it has changed
its behaviour without updating the entire documentation.

So yes, you're right. It's by design.

Regards,
