severity 668404 important stop Thanks for your report. xbmc-live requires upstart to be installed. Note that xbmc-live is not necessary to install and use the xbmc package.
I did not find anything in policy that says packages cannot require the use of another init system. The only language I found pertaining to this is Debian policy 9.3, which pertains to how maintainer scripts should be provided for the init system, and has language like "should" or "may" and not "must" or "require." I'm downgrading this bug to important. -- ~ Andres -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
