[PKG-OpenRC-Debian] Bug#817006: ack to NMU

[Benda Xu]

Hi Adam,

Thank you for your report.  I appreciate your enthusiasm.

Sorry, I forgot to append my reply to Andreas to #811708:

  http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/openrc-devel/Week-of-Mon-20160307/000436.html

Basically, my taking to this bug is to ignore it, leaving the users to
fix the breakage by

  dpkg-divert --remove /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d
  dpkg-divert --remove /usr/sbin/update-rc.d

manually.  

0.20.4-1 lasted only 10days.  Only few users would be affected.
Provided OpenRC have already been removed from testing thanks to i-s-h
[1], such a breakage is tolerable for unstable.


That said, I understand theoretically your NMU is the correctly way to
go.  So if you intend to do so, consider this email as an ack to NMU
from the maintainer team.


One thing to notice is that we are tracking the package at

  http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/openrc/openrc.git

Would you mind if I ask you to prepare a commit to the master
corresponding to the NMU?

BTW, if you are interested in OpenRC, you are welcomed to join the
maintenance team.

Yours,
Benda


1. 0.20.4-1 was uploaded in a hurry to keep itself in testing.  The pts
system lied and we did not make it.  divert should not have existed in
OpenRC.
