Great to hear. :) > Am I wrong, and does it really mean: > When we need to stop _current service_, everything in Required-Stop > needs to be stopped ? Nope. Script B listed in required-start of script A means that script B _must_ be started _before_ script A. Script B listed in required-stop of script A means that script B _must_ be stopped _after_ script A. Script B listed in should-start of script A mean that scripp B _must, if present_, be started _before_ script A. The optional part is that the system do not break down if it is missing. If it is present, system started by script A does break down if it do not start before script B. Similar for should-stop. X-start-before and X-stop-after are the reverse of should-start and should-stop. Using x-start-before in script A listing script B is like having should-start in script B listing script A. > I've read http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts, and its still not > very clear why mysql and mysql-ndb-mgm are in a dep. loop. Please update the text to make it clearer, if my explanation above helped you get a better understanding. The mysql bug is now reported as #458798.
