Package: sysvinit
Version: 2.86.ds1-54
Severity: wishlist


hi,

sorry to bother, but here's a snipet of out of box thinking:

instead of setting the number of starting/killing of each init.d 
entry, i'd suggest each init.d script should name the processes 
it needs to run in order to be started. a list for each runstate 
may also help.

from here, package dependencies may be also deduced, like with 
shlibs. anyway, guessing the correct number for a new package is 
highly problematic.

an user may alter the order by adding processes to the list in a 
script.

at init time, a scan of the dependencies should generate up to a 
few lists of processes that are unrelated to each other, that may 
be run as threads, to save time.

best regards,

alex

Version: 2.87dsf-2

Since version 2.87dsf-2 of sysv-rc, debian is using a dependency based
boot sequencing using the LSB headers of init.d scripts.

Happy hacking,
