[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#584081: give clear old/new behaviour sections

[jidanni at jidanni.org]

Package: sysv-rc
Version: 2.88dsf-7
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/share/man/man8/update-rc.d.8.gz

We read

       For legacy mode, the following section documents the old behaviour.

However, it is not clear how long the section you are talking about is.

Apparently it is the entire 4000 characters, all the way down through.

       The script /etc/init.d/name must exist before update-rc.d is run to create the links.

However if indeed those 4000 characters document the old behaviour, then
where, the reader asks, is the part describing the new behaviour?

You might want to clarify that on the man page.
