Hi,
I've reopend this bug, because I recently updated my VMs to Jessie and
stumbled upon it. This bug is a result of different behaviour of systemd
and sysvinit. In sysvinit halt was configurable (see man 5 halt) to do a
poweroff or not. Poweroff was the default here, if a different behavior
was desired it could be changed in /etc/default/halt.
Since the old manpages are still there, and the behaviour currently
depends on the init system you use, it is confusing. Changing behaviour
after such a long time isn't a good thing either.
But I assume this bug report might be assigned to the wrong package,
since this seems to be a systemd problem. Should I reassign this?
Best regards
Matthias
