systemtap-initscript-0.9.7-5.el5

Description of problem:

1) Few commands are probably missing a linebreak, so they don't look very well when used. At least a space would look better.

# service systemtap start            
Starting systemtap:Compiling one ...done                        
Starting one ...done

# service systemtap cleanup
Cleaning up systemtap:Removing caches

# service systemtap compile
Compiling systemtap:Updating caches

2) Compile command output doesn't make sense: 'compiling systemtap' is not true, 'compiling systemtap scripts' is.

3) status command doesn't print any output when run with no scripts in script.d. Something like 'No systemtap scripts present' would be nice to have.

# service systemtap status

#

4) restart command should work like 'start' when everything is stopped, but it does not:

# service systemtap status
one is stopped

# service systemtap restart
Starting systemtap:                                        [WARNING]
# service systemtap status
one is stopped

5) -y (say 'yes' to all querys) doesn't work. Other options seem to work fine.
# service systemtap cleanup -y
getopt: invalid option -- y
Usage: systemtap {start|stop|restart|status|compile|cleanup} [option]
Options:
        -c configfile   : specify config file
        -r kernelrelease: specify kernel release version
        -R              : recursively dependency checking
        -y              : answer yes for all questions.
        script(s)       : specify systemtap scripts
# service systemtap compile  -y
getopt: invalid option -- y
Usage: systemtap {start|stop|restart|status|compile|cleanup} [option]

        -y              : answer yes for all questions.
