Clear message

Packages are available for Lucid in the SchoolTool PPA: https://launchpad.net/~schooltool-owners/+archive/ppa/?field.series_filter=lucid

There are several issues we'd like to resolve at the UDS-M sprint:

  1. init.d script
  2. layout of /etc/schooltool, multiple instances and plugins
  3. permissions and ownership of /var/log/schooltool and /var/lib/schooltool
  4. customization of default schooltool

Currently the standard installation of SchoolTool is defined in three packages: schooltool-2009, schooltool-common, and python-schooltool.stapp2008fall. schooltool-2009 installs init.d script, but it only includes a file from schooltool-common package. It also installs files to /etc/schooltool/schooltool-2009, but they are not marked as conffiles.

We need a review of the init.d script and likely convert it to an upstart script.
