Severity: wishlist

Hi,

In Debian the recommendation for all init scripts is to check the variable
VERBOSE from /etc/default/rcS and only print a message on console only if
this variable is not 0.

This should be adopted by init-functions too, at least for some of the
functions that print [info] tags.

Cheers
