ef1ff1b4f2 make shell math operations style more succulent
Convert the style:
	var=$((${var} + 1))
to:
	: $(( var += 1 ))

The latter is easier to read imo.

The ewarn() function was affected by the EINFO_QUIET environment
variable which lead to warning messages being suppressed. Warnings
should not be suppressed.

0c8bea2152 Improve processing of service directories and conf.d files
symbolic links should not be followed in an attempt to work out the name
of the service we are running. Also, @sysconfdir@/conf.d should be tried
as a backup directory for configuration files.

I would like to thank Robin Johnson for his input on this change.

b4104957b1 We should use -feature instead of nofeature.
This matches the ifconfig and Gentoo USE flag syntax and is hopefully
easier to read.
Fixes #178.

ee53e6ad29 -w, --wait seconds
New option so you can set the number of seconds to wait for and
check the daemon is still running.
The old code that periodically polled wasn't that reliable - in this 
case simpler == better.

Split halt.sh into halt, killprocs, romount and savecache services.
The reboot runlevel is removed but mapped to shutdown.
The halt script should be moved to the sysvinit package.
2008-11-03 15:31:01 +00:00
0d98d56188 Remove sysvinit specific code.
The runlevels shutdown, reboot, sysinit and single should be called by
init(8) and shutdown(8) and not manually.
sysvinit users will have to add sulogin to their inittab to secure the
console.
