Hi folks,

I've attached a set of changes for your consideration.  These are
also available from
  git://git.debian.org/git/users/rleigh/sysvinit
    (branch 2.88dsf-13.12) which follows on from
  git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/sysvinit (master)

commit 6650fe79c37f147115fa530d880ebb86bb3651d7
Author: Roger Leigh <rleigh at debian.org>
Date:   Fri Jul 22 22:31:04 2011 +0100

    mtab: Make /etc/mtab a symlink to /proc/mounts on Linux

[Should not impact debian-installer.  We're waiting on
 #622693 at the moment, unless this is deemed unimportant]

commit d31b3f3bfef0c4ba71c269e01ff59bd1d3ad608a
Author: Roger Leigh <rleigh at debian.org>
Date:   Fri Jul 22 21:35:05 2011 +0100

    mtab.sh: Remove unused DO_MTAB

[Cleanup]

commit 750421a7fdd5e53f058601df9014fbacefceac99
Author: Roger Leigh <rleigh at debian.org>
Date:   Fri Jul 22 21:24:27 2011 +0100

    Move /tmp symlink handling to mountall

[This was being done at a point where the symlink destination
 might not be mounted or writable, so move until after everything
 is mounted and writable]

commit cac68d30c85d86424062c45969005f7d61ecea23
Author: Roger Leigh <rleigh at debian.org>
Date:   Fri Jul 22 21:29:08 2011 +0100

    debian: Use linux-any in Build-Depends and Close #634514

[As reported a few days ago]

commit a82bfbb752f1a859f5b8e1a20463f0edca3d035d
Author: Michael Biebl <biebl at debian.org>
Date:   Thu Jul 14 08:46:26 2011 +0200

    Remove dead splash code
    
    Neither splashy nor plymouth is using this splash API.
    So it only adds unnecessary complexity and slows down boot.
    It also uses a deprecated /dev/.initramfs/ directory which has gone awol
    with the switch to /run.

[As discussed last week; has there been any further feedback about
 the suitability of this patch?  Are there any current or prospective
 users?]


Regards,
Roger
