Hello all,

I'm one of the splashy developers. This should be a bug against lsb-base as it shouldn't provide the file /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh. This file is provided by packages that want to tap into the "hooks" from running the init scripts (/etc/init.d/*).

Splashy needs to do something as init scripts are starting or ending.

On post #26 Thomas Ohms posted a patch that breaks Debian policies. What should be done in case lsb-base cannot be changed, is to use dpkg-divert and move lsb-base-logging.sh out of the way so Splashy can replace it with it's own copy.

Thomas, please join us on #splashy at irc.freenode.net so we can work on a solution together and add this to Debian the proper way. From there it will go to Ubuntu when the repositories are sync'd.
