[Bug 798192] Re: install_initd fails

[Aaron Sowry]

Seems like this was previously fixed in lsb revision 50, but is broken
again in 12.04 Alpha. It is not possible to install services without
this bug fixed, so should probably be given some priority.

Title:
  install_initd fails

Status in “lsb” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lsb

  This just started yesterday. I do continual LSB testing of Ubuntu-
  latest, usually once a week or so. The lsb-apache package (part of the
  application battery, part of the distro certification tests) runs the
  following scripts at install/uninstall:

  /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd /etc/init.d/lsb-apache
  /usr/lib/lsb/remove_initd /etc/init.d/lsb-apache

  Running the latter on the current system, when alien/dpkg installs the
  package yields:

   root at ubuntu-latest-32:~# /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd /etc/init.d/lsb-apache
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/lsb/install_initd", line 3, in <module>
      import sys, re, os, initdutils
    File "/usr/lib/lsb/initdutils.py", line 18
      raise ValueError, 'need a file or string'
                      ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax

  I'm also seeing failures in the core-test "init" tests, which could be
  related to this same issue, as they also install/remove a couple of
  dummy init scripts and look at the starup/shutdown dependency stack.
