With dependency based boot sequencing, I discovered what I believe is
a bug in the init.d/conntrackd script.  The server started uses
syslog, and should start after the syslog facility is available.  For
this it need to depend on $syslog.  Also, it should stop in runlevel
1, and should start in runlevel 4, and thus need to list these in the
default-* headers.  Also, it need /usr/ to be mounted, and thus need
to depend on $remote_fs (which can be done instead of depending on
$network).

<URL:http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.1.0/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/initscrcomconv.html>
documents the LSB header format.  Some debian notes are available from
<URL:http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts>.

This patch should solve the issue.  Without it, the init.d script is
started too early and stopped to late, and not inserted correctly into
the
