Dear Debian nsd maintainer,
first thanks for maintaining this very nice package!
As a remark, the new init script version in unstable introduced two
problems:
1. Stopping nsd takes lot of time since it uses the standard stop stanza
from /lib/init/init-d-script
2. The init script does not implement the override of
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/nsd.conf with /etc/tmpfiles.d/nsd.conf
As SysV is deprecated I'm not sure if the new init script isn't rather a
regression than a progress. So maybe it would make more sense to either:
- restore the old init script which provides a much better functionality
(creation of pidfile and database directory with the settings from the
nsd config file for example)
or
- remove the init script from the package but don't clean up an existing
script if the init system isn't systemd
Maybe you could give this idea a thought because the current init script
really doesn't improve the package.
Kind regards
Harald Jenny
