Bug Description

Dear Colleagues,

the chkconfig call in add_debian.py.patch doesn't work on Ubuntu (didn't test it with Debian though), because /sbin/insserv doesn't exist.
/usr/lin/insserv/insserv exists, but doesn't behave correctly.

For Ubuntu we should rewrite these calls, to match our service tools.

Furthermore, more checks needs to be included into this tool, to check if a service is already started.

Regards,

\sh

yeah, and chkconfig got removed from the archive, so the current platform code should be ported to use something else..

So,

what do we have, the service <upstart service name> status calls are not parsed correctly.
Even with dbus and sssd started, it still fires up the service dbus start and service sssd start commands.

Actually, with FreeIPA 2.2.0 the whole debian platform module breaks.
So, it looks like we have to do much more on this.

There's much restructuring needed upstream before a proper debian platform module can be created (that works for the server as well). I'm in process of doing it, but not sure how long it takes until everything is in place.

we should still be able to fix the current package so that it doesn't need chkconfig.
