Add emits stanza for deconfiguring-networking

[James Hunt]

Binary package hint: dbus

The initctl(8) check-config command reads the "emits" stanzas (see init(5)). However, we have a minor problem in that dbus starts on an event that is not advertised using "emits":

$ initctl check-config
dbus
  stop on: unknown event deconfiguring-networking
$

This event is actually emitted by the SysV script /etc/init.d/networking which poses a problem in that we cannot update the appropriate Upstart .conf file, since there isn't one.

I propose the best solution is to add an appropriate emits line to /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf in the Ubuntu Upstart package for the deconfiguring-networking event:

  emits runlevel
+ deconfiguring-networking

This will pacify "initctl check-config" without having to resort to the --ignore-events option.

This bug was fixed in upstart 1.3-0ubuntu6. Changelog:

upstart (1.3-0ubuntu6) oneiric; urgency=low

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * Fix maintainer field to be compliant with policy definition

  [ Clint Byrum ]
  * conf/rc.conf: document events that are emitted by sysvinit
    jobs to quiet 'initctl check-config'
  * extra/conf/upstart-udev-bridge.conf: narrow definition to
    only the events actually emitted. (LP: #819928)
  * debian/conf/failsafe.conf: new job for critical services to
    start on.
  * conf/rc-sysinit.conf: start after static-network-up or failsafe
    so that runlevel 2 is only entered with all static net interfaces
    up. (LP: #580319)
