Version: 0.3.0-2
Severity: normal
Hi!
Debian Policy 9.3.2 [1] states that
| Packages that include daemons for system services should place
| scripts in /etc/init.d to start or stop services at boot time or
| during a change of runlevel.
[1] http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s9.3.2
I cannot find any init.d script for /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon,
which is apparently a daemon which is normally run as root.
As a consequence, I cannot understand what's the correct strategy
to restart the daemon, when I need to (e.g.: because checkrestart
suggests to do so, after a package upgrade).
Please provide an init.d script, if appropriate, or otherwise
document the recommended way to restart the daemon.
Thanks in advance.
