-------------------------------------

to mine experience, all the service daemon behavior like this, at least ones included in package tests.

> There are several services (flume-agent and hue at the very least) that return 0 as return code when the service is being stopped when it's actually not running. It seems by reading http://refspecs.linuxbase.org/LSB_3.1.1/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptact.html that we should be returning error code 7.
> Please let me know if you agree or disagree. If this is indeed a bug, I can upload a patch for all the services that have this bug (there may be more services than just flume-agent and hue).
