[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#464854: skeleton: Move skeleton code into a file that other scripts can include

[Olaf van der Spek]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.86.ds1-38
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Would it be possible to move common code from skeleton into another file like /lib/lsb/init-functions such that code doesn't have to be duplicated?
The start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload case statement looks like a good candidate and default do_start and do_stop scripts (with optional callbacks) would be good as well.
