[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#586709: closed by Thomas Goirand

[Daniel Richard G.]

For some reason, I did not receive any of these recent messages prior to
the one that closed the bug.

Just a few things I'd like to point out:

1. "poweroff" performing a halt is incorrect behavior regardless of the
   setting in /etc/default/halt;

2. Regarding this:

   > The user is basically reporting, in the above situation, that they
   > change the default behaviour, but then want to change it back using
   > another method and I don't think Debian's approach supports that.

   Where is this limitation documented in the halt(8) or halt(5) man
   pages, or the /etc/default/halt config file itself?

   > Basically, everything is working "as expected",

   What I expect is that the system works as documented.

3. Better late than never...
