[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#660335: missing bits of TERM=xterm transition

[Robert Millan]

Package: sysvinit
Version: 2.88dsf-13.1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: debian-bsd at lists.debian.org
Usertags: kfreebsd

Please consider adding the following changes so that sysvinit can handle the
TERM=xterm transition all by itself without having to depend on versioned
kbdcontrol package.

This will allow eventual backporting of sysvinit to Squeeze without having to
drag everything else in GNU/kFreeBSD userland with it (freebsd-utils,
freebsd-libs, kfreebsd-kernel-headers, etc).

Thanks!
