This package contains Upstart job definitions used to reboot a system in case system-level or session-level jobs repeatedly fail and hit their respawn limit.

After booting, any job that is noticed as being respawned beyond their defined 'respawn limit' clause or the default upstart limits will cause the system to be rebooted in order to try to get back to a working state. This is especially useful on minimal installations and systems where most if not all services are expected to be critical and required.
