When I was creating Debian packages over the last years, private ones and official ones, I sometimes wanted to make a package depend on a service daemon (just the program), and sometimes depend on a service (the daemon and the service enabled by default). If anyone designs a Debian package that needs a running git-daemon service, it can simply depend on git-daemon-run, if it just needs the service daemon, it can depend on git-core. For the first case, there can be multiple implementations of git-daemon-run. > In my experience, having the init script in a different binary package > than the daemon causes problems on upgrade.
