Package: acpi-support Version: 0.90-4 Tags: patch To be able to check boot script order, and also to be able to start boot scripts in parallel, it is important to know the dependencies of the various boot scripts. The Linux Software Base specifies a init.d header file format useful for this purpose, and adding such header to the scripts would make it possible for me to use this information to check the current sequence and speed up the debian boot.
<URL:http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.1.0/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/initscrcomconv.html> documents the LSB header format, and <URL:http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts> summarizes it in the Debian context. Here is a proposed dependency header to document the dependencies of this packages init.d scripts. It is slightly tested using the insserv package and the new parallell booting support in sysvinit. ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: acpi-support # Required-Start: $local_fs $remote_fs # Required-Stop: $local_fs $remote_fs # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 ### END INIT INFO ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: vbesave # Required-Start: $local_fs $remote_fs # Required-Stop: $local_fs $remote_fs # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 ### END INIT INFO Please upload a fixed version into unstable soon, to make it possible to verify the boot sequence and get this in place for Lenny.
