Now that a bunch of stuff has been upstart-ified (is that the word?), invoke-rc.d $JOB reload doesn't work anymore.

I think this means that we should do something like

if [ -e /etc/init/gdm.conf ]; then
    reload gdm
elif hash invoke-rc.d >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    invoke-rc.d gdm reload
else
    /etc/init.d/gdm reload
fi

Otherwise nothing kicks gdm.

LPRng's lpr theoretically provides compatibility with a SysV-style lp command when invoked with argv[0] set to "lp". LPRng provides an lp -> lpr symlink for this reason, which we transform to mit-lp -> mit-lpr.

Of course, because we changed the name of the program, we don't trigger LPRng's detection of what it's running as:

Lines 414-417 from src/common/lpr.c in debathena-lprng:

        /* check to see if we simulate (poorly) the LP options */
        if( name && safestrcmp( name, "lp" ) == 0 ){
                LP_mode_JOB = 1;
        }

This detection is actually relevant for anybody using lp, beacuse lp uses -d to specify a print queue instead of -P.

This means you get screwed if you use our lp wrapper on an LPRng queue, which I'm sure nobody does.

dacopy and daremove are wrappers around reprepro copysrc and reprepro removesrc respectively.

This is a bit annoying when you actually want reprepro copy or reprepro remove, like I did when I was removing an NBS package.

Renaming dacopy and daremove would be annoying, so I'm thinking we should maybe add a --nosrc argument or something like that to each of them.
