Ironically the problem was the opposite: the Provides: line in /etc/init.d/openvpn said openvpn, but I had added a dependency on "vpn" to the Required-Start line in /etc/init.d/dnsmasq. Once I changed this to "openvpn", it worked. But my main concern is: should the user have to add that dependency manually to make dnsmasq and openvpn work together? Isn't there a way that the package configuration can do this automatically? CC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
