Comment 6 for bug 613231

Here is the updated patch against upstart-1.5, with three changes compared to earlier versions:

First, the optional config file is moved to /etc/default/upstart-job.

Second, there is only one variable, ECHO.

Third, ECHO defaults to "echo" unless /etc/default/upstart-job exists and redefines it. (Normally, /etc/default/upstart-job does not exist, and that is fine.) If DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE is not empty, then ECHO is set to : silencing all messages, regardless of what /etc/default/upstart-job set it to.
