now, I was thinking this was something that debian changed and Ubuntu followed suit, but this is not the case.

/etc/lsb-base-logging.sh is sourced from LSB functions so users are allowed to change the way init scripts call the init scripts. To allow things like, presenting a progressbar during boot, or whatever the user see fit.

lsb-base on Ubuntu should NOT try to provide this file. lsb-base should do what the debian version does: http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/lsb-base/filelist

if Ubuntu needs new functions, it should just patch the Debian lsb-base /lib/lsb/init-functions file with their own version. This would be a much better fix to this problem than anything else.

I want to get this bug resolve before more are reported on this manner (4 new bugs so far; please make them dups of this by the way.); I'm on #splashy and #ubuntu-devel on irc, just in case somebody has time today.
