[Bug 806761] Re: Feature Request: Upstart scripts for nslcd

[Caleb Callaway]

Okay, after reading the Daemon Behavior section of the Upstart cookbook
(http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#daemon-behaviour), I've settled on
a solution that I'm reasonably happy with: looping in a post-start
script until the ticket cache is detected on the file system _or_ a
timeout occurs (so we don't stall the job start process indefinitely)

Patch is attached. Contains the updated logic, as well as miscellaneous
edits for clarity.

** Patch added: "nslcd-upstart.debdiff"
