Hi,

the initscript documentation from $URL still describes the usage of "pause". But this seems to be deprecated:

# /etc/init.d/rsyslog pause
 * WARNING: 'pause' is deprecated; please use '--nodeps stop'
 * Stopping rsyslogd ...   

This also affects translations.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks; indeed, this usage is deprecated. I've updated the document in CVS, should show up on the site in an hour or so.
