Yes, dependency-based boot ordering is going to become mandatory, and that is the premise for this idea. In Squeeze it will be possible to keep the old boot ordering for systems upgraded from Lenny. We should drop support for it in Squeeze+1 and make it clear that it is no longer optional to switch to dependency based boot sequencing. The alternative is to force all package maintainers to guess on sequence numbers, and that do not make sense. > And yes, I am *all* for dependency-based ordering to be mandatory. Good. Lets drop support for the legacy boot ordering when Squeeze is released.
