When installing usm from bzr branch, setup.py symlinks /etc/init.d/usm badly

[Andy Loughran]

Installing using bzr instructions on the website..
setup.py

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 2009-02-17 17:49 usm -> /home/server/usm/manager/usm

ln: creating symbolic link `/etc/init.d/usm': File exists
mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/run/usm': File exists
./setup.sh: line 38: /etc/init.d/usm: No such file or directory
andy@genesis:~/usm/usr/share/usm$ vi setup.sh
andy@genesis:~/usm/usr/share/usm$ /etc/init.d/usm restart
-bash: /etc/init.d/usm: No such file or directory
andy@genesis:~/usm/usr/share/usm$ sudo chmod a+x /etc/init.d/usm
chmod: cannot operate on dangling symlink `/etc/init.d/usm'

okay, i am guessing you mean setup.sh as i could not find setup.py, but anyhow ignore it ie dont use it usm should run just by running usm.py as root, it then drops itsself to a different user account.
setup.sh will either be removed or may be needed for setup from a deb going to test on a clean machine and decide what needs to be done.

no longer needed, handled by usm.py
