I've tested your patch, and it appears to work correctly in all the cases I've tried. I've updated it slightly (attached) to log what's happening during transition to dependency-based boot, particularly if things go wrong, but it's otherwise functionally identical to your patch. It also runs insserv in verbose mode so that any errors/warnings are not hidden (as for sysv-rc). Alexander, is this approach OK with you? If you're happy with what this is doing, can this go into wheezy? Regards, Roger -- .''`.
