Hi,
Thorsten Glaser pointed out to me this morning that forwarding Ubuntu's
backlog of Upstart jobs to Debian will cause a bunch of packages to be
incompatible with file-rc. Now, I don't know how long file-rc is
sticking around, but it doesn't seem right for Upstart jobs to be the
thing that force it out, so I think we should fix this.
I sent a patch to the file-rc maintainers as #709481 which brings their
invoke-rc.d up to date with the upstart support in sysv-rc. Once that's
applied, I think the following patch should be applied to debhelper,
although you'll need to adjust it to match whatever version they choose.
