sysvinit (2.86.ds1-38)

My /etc/init.d/rc file dates from 18 February 2007, and was modified by
bootsplash.

When I tried to purge the package, I got only 1 hunk that failed.
"Hunk #5 FAILED at 183."

Thanks.  I did the following things to safely purge the package:

$ cd /etc/init.d/
$ cp rc.orig rc
$ cp rc rc.bootsplash
$ patch -p0 < rc-bootsplash.patch
$ apt-get --purge remove sysv-rc-bootsplash

For some strange reason it works now.

To be double sure, I reinstalled sysv-rc.


For some reason, the reject file had problems around line 183 (or 190):

  *)
    startup_progress $debug "$script" $action
    ;;
esac

I added and removed a few lines, but to no avail.  Oh well, it works
now, so I'm more than happy.  I guess you could close this bug.

Other people with similar problems could try out the aforementioned
commands, and see if it helps. =)


Cheers
