Package: initng Version: 0.1.8-1 Severity: wishlist The current version of initng seem to include its own copies of init.d scripts for some of the packages in debian, but lack others.
To avoid having to duplicate init.d scripts in initng format, and thus always fall behind compared to the init.d script included in a package, I suggest initng is changed to parse the normal init.d scripts, and look for the Linux Software Base defined headers defining relationship between services. If no such headers are found, it should pick default values to match the current normal boot order in debian (aka almost everything start with order 20 :). These are the LSB tags defined in version 2.0.1: ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Required-Start: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Required-Stop: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Should-Start: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Should-Stop: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Default-Start: run_level_1 [ run_level_2 ...] # Default-Stop: run_level_1 [ run_level_2 ...] # Short-Description: short_description # Description: multiline_description ### END INIT INFO If this is done, we could start adding such headers to the existing init.d scripts, and slowly get the packages in debian ready for use with parallell booting.
