Package: hostapd
Version: 1:0.5.5-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 3.5


hostapd 0.5.5 needs init script functions that are not available
in older versions of lsb-base. Running a backport on Sarge
results in:

/etc/init.d/hostapd: line 38: log_daemon_msg: command not found
/etc/init.d/hostapd: line 44: log_progress_msg: command not found

As hostapd needs lsb-base and lsb-base is not marked essential,
hostapd must depend on lsb-base. Because it only works with newer
versions of lsb-base the depends: should be versioned.
