[Bug 1185560] Re: Console <-> Upstart bridge shows very confusing and unhelpful "Starting" and "Stopping" with no descriptions

[Steve Langasek]

Hello Clint, or anyone else affected,

Accepted plymouth into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/0.8.8-0ubuntu16 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  Console <-> Upstart bridge shows very confusing and unhelpful
  "Starting" and "Stopping" with no descriptions

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I will attach a screen shot as well. It seems that jobs which have no
  description field are not displaying the name of the job in the
  upstart<->plymouth bridge.

  This was seen on an Ubuntu 12.10 server with a text console forced by
  passing nomodeset vga=normal in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX

  ii  plymouth                0.8.4-0ubuntu3   i386             graphical boot animation and logger - main package
  ii  upstart                 1.5-0ubuntu9     i386             event-based init daemon
