[Bug 1007433] Re: circular dependency causes zookeeperd to not be running after installation of zookeeperd

[James Page]

@Clint

With regards to the two other potential bugs in zookeeper:

1) /var/lib/zookeeper should belong to zookeeper

A --no-create-home might help here (or I can make it quiet) - the
permissions get set post user creation so they should be correct at
runtime.

2) the upstart job should be reporting the failure, not 'start/running'

I guess a pre-start check for 'java' might be a good idea - however I
don't think its unreasonable to expect java to be configured prior to
zookeeperd during installation so I'm not sold on the idea.

Bug description:
  In a fresh quantal cloud image (i used ubuntu-quantal-daily-
  amd64-server-20120531), 'apt-get install zookeeperd' does not result
  in a running zookeeperd.

  to reproduce:
   * launch fresh instance
   * sudo apt-get install --assume-yes zookeeperd
    * status zookeeper

  Note, if you have previously installed zookeeper (not zookeeperd) then
  things will be fine.
