Package: initscripts
Version: 2.86.ds1-63
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
In the package description,
-Description: Scripts for initializing and shutting down the system
+Description: scripts for initializing and shutting down the system
DevRev6.2.2-compliance, in passing. The other synopses in the same
control file are entitled to their capital letters.
The scripts in this package initialize a standard Debian
- GNU/Linux system at boot time and finalize it at halt or
- reboot time.
+ system at boot time and shut it down at halt or reboot time.
Two issues:
1) initscripts_2.86.ds1-63_kfreebsd-{amd64,i386}.deb
2) "finalise" is some sort of malapropism (it means something
closer to "put into its canonical form ready for use");
"terminate" might be closer, but "shut down", as in the
synopsis, is the normal idiom.
