[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#545975: puppet: please provide "status" target in init-script

[Christian Hofstaedtler]

Package: puppet
Version: 0.24.8-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

the init script currently has no "status" target/action, therefore
making it less than ideal for use with puppet's service type, i.e. the
following won't work:

service { "puppet":
  ensure => running,
  hasstatus => true,
}

Please consider this for the next release.

Thanks,
Christian
