[Bug 1047837] Re: Upstart support

[James Hunt]

These Upstart job configuration files look very good. Just a couple of
points:

- are the following files required? Do they apply where no default
database has been configured? Or are they an oversight?

  zabbix-proxy-.upstart
  zabbix-server-.upstart

- Since all the .upstart files share the same pre-start, as an
optimisation, you could potentially create a "zabbix-setup" job that
does that setup and have it 'start on (filesystem and net-device up
IFACE=lo)' and 'export DIR' such that the remaining Upstart jobs could
simply 'start on started zabbix-setup'.

Title:
  Upstart support

Status in Zabbix:
  Won't Fix
Status in “zabbix” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Ubuntu uses Upstart instead of SysVInit to run the init process.
  Attached debdiff includes upstart scripts that will allow Upstart to
  start/stop all zabbix daemon components. Installation of the scripts
  will happen automatically using Ubuntus Upstart debhelper scripts,
  Debian will simply ignore them.

  The patch was also sent upstream to the Debian maintainers.
