Thanks for the bug report. Please can you confirm what the impact is of this, and if it is a regression from the previous available package.

Thanks.

The previous package had a patch applied that added upstart support,
however the backported package doesn't seem to have the patch applied.
Newest puppet versions have upstart support built-in

Thank you.

Hi Ali-

I believe this is the patch you've mentioned: http://paste.ubuntu.com/747427/ ...which is a workaround to allow Puppet to manage upstart jobs as if they were sysv init scripts. After double-checking, it appears this patch is in fact applied to both the lucid (0.25.4-2ubuntu6) and lucid-backports branch (2.6.1-0ubuntu2~lucid1). Using rsyslog as a test case, I've confirmed both versions can successfully start and stop the service via its upstart job.

Is there a specific test case you can share to confirm a bug?

Thanks
