I suspect it would have to be solved on a case by case basis, as we are talking about packages with bogus or incomplete boot script ordering information. > Would it be possible to have innserv only warn and not break the > upgrade?

I doubt it, given that the incorrect boot ordering information exist in the package in question, and continuing might leave the system in a non-bootable state anyway. So the options seem to be to abort the upgrade and require manual intervention, or continue the upgrade and perhaps end up with a non-bootable system. The former seem like a better option to me, to avoid silent breakage. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
