[PKG-IRC-Maintainers] Bug#548797: ngircd: Init script does not support SIGHUP

Package: ngircd
Version: 0.12.1-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

ngircd understands the HUP signal, and it has a rather important
function:  Reloading the configuration file.  However, the init script
shipped with the Debian package does not support the "reload"
parameter.  Please fix.

And by the way _please_ upload a new package using the current
upstream version 14.1 as suggested in #534410.  Rebasing the
Debianisation onto 14.1 was no problem, and it was a big shame if the
next Debian stable release ships a totally outdated version again.

    Christoph
