Hi,

IMHO we should just add back the dependency on iscsitarget-module, which is in 
lenny thanks to the linux-modules-extra-2.6 package, as the module is 
out-of-tree anyway, and must be built from iscsitarget-source for non-debian 
packages in order for this package to be of any use at all.

Adding a construct via /etc/default/iscsitarget with ENABLE=no is an option, 
but it does only workaround the Debian-specific nuisance of starting every 
service by default.

So if no one objects, I will turn the 

Recommends: iscsitarget-module

into a Depends: and be done with it.

Best regards
Frederik Schüler

PS: the Recommends is still from before iscsitarget-module was included into 
l-m-e-2.6.
