[Bug 739007] Re: /etc/init.d/halt does not declare dependencies

[David Clayton]

Ok, I have now found what was breaking my scripts - VMware Workstation
8/Player - I verified that the install process of this program changed
all the run levels in /etc/rc0.d & /etc/rc6.d on my fresh 10.04 test
system. I have reported it to the VMware forums.

Title:
  /etc/init.d/halt does not declare dependencies

Status in “sysvinit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “sysvinit” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: sysvinit

  Description:    Ubuntu 10.10
  Release:        10.10

  initscripts:
    Installed: 2.87dsf-4ubuntu19
    Candidate: 2.87dsf-4ubuntu19

  The init script /etc/init.d/halt does not declare any dependencies,
  which causes it to be inserted very early in the shutdown sequence
  when recalculating the script order using insserv.

  This causes the system to be powered off before the shutdown is
  complete (as halt is inserted as S01halt) and ends up with dirty
  filesystems.
