Summary:                    The debian init script is still not LSB compliant, 
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=18896 should not have been closed
Description: 
Hi,

If asterisk is running and the init script is ran as below:

/etc/init.d/asterisk start; echo $?

The following is returned
Asterisk is already running.  /etc/init.d/asterisk will exit now.
1

This violates the LSB standard for return values it should be 0. See:
http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_3.1.1/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptact.html)

I've fixed this by modifying line 72. Changing return 1 to return 0. This
is actually a big deal for anybody using this script for HA cluster work.
I've successfully clustered asterisk servers with pacemaker/corosync using
the fixed script below.

Thanks for Asterisk it rocks :-)
