Bug Description

Hi folks,

I am running rsyslog on the new Trusty and I got the issue starting the process with old init.d system:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@trusty01:~# /etc/init.d/rsyslog status
 * rsyslogd is running
root@trusty01:~# /etc/init.d/rsyslog stop
root@trusty01:~# /etc/init.d/rsyslog status
 * rsyslogd is running
root@trusty01:~# service rsyslog stop
rsyslog stop/waiting
root@trusty01:~# /etc/init.d/rsyslog status
 * rsyslogd is not running
root@trusty01:~# /etc/init.d/rsyslog start
root@trusty01:~# /etc/init.d/rsyslog status
 * rsyslogd is not running
root@trusty01:~# service rsyslog start
rsyslog start/running, process 1130
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

About the package I am running :
rsyslog 7.4.4-1ubuntu2 amd64
on Release: 14.04

I would expect it either to stop and start the daemon correctly or to exit with a nice error message saying
"I am deprecated, please use ..."

Thanks,

Remi Debay
