Hi Clint,

is it really valid to require an upstart job for package X to check that other scripts installed by package X are in fact installed?

If so this is trivial to add, but it seems over the top to worry about the upstart job failing (with no further ill effects on the host, IIUC) if the package is in a bad state. Put another way, you say the upstart job should 'exit gracefully', but really the upstart job should fail under this condition!

(Or have I misunderstood the scenario?)
