Hi, Thanks for the recent patch.
- It fixes 'start' and 'restart'. I'm not sure about 'reload' but I couldn't make it fail, so OK :) - However 'stop' is not fixed (still async). - Also after service postgresql stop ; rm -rf /var/lib/postgresql ; service postgresql start -> 'status' will still happily declare the service 'active' These tests show the bug is not completely fixed, so I'm reopening it. Cheers!
