Description Jóhann B. Guðmundsson 2011-12-25 23:49:39 UTC
Description of problem:

In Fedora 15+, SysV initscripts are no longer the default, they have been obsoleted by systemd unit files and as is stated per the guidelines...

"packagers who wish to include SysV initscripts may also do so, but they MUST be placed into a separate $name-sysvinit subpackage" 

If your intention is to continue to ship the legacy sysv init script please package it separately in a separate sub package or else drop it...

Thanks
