Description Eugeniy Meshcheryakov 2010-01-21 11:12:03 UTC 
stap-server and systemtap init script include /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions . This
file does not exist in all Linux distributions (for example Debian). I don't
know what does that file contain, but name looks similar to /lib/lsb/init-functions.

I suspect you're right. It contains initscript helper functions like 'success'
and 'failure'.

commit 5ac7fee

Default functions are now provided in stap-server when /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions does not exist.
