Hi, Just wanted to suggest an idea; could lxc generate a dummy 'lxcroot' initscript containing Provides: checkroot and the same dependencies as the real 'checkroot'? That should fill the 'gap' in the dependency chain, and would also make it clear that lxc and checkroot directly conflict.
Since checkroot is part of initscripts, being a required package in the base system, and considering a remote risk of breaking something on 'clean' systems during the deep freeze for Squeeze, it would think it a good idea to prefer to fix this in lxc. At the moment, it looks to me like the initscripts in the base system don't depend on implied (indirect) child dependencies. Perhaps deliberately, or else the dependency graph would become more complex and probably more difficult to maintain in the long run. p.s., I made a pretty graph of this: http://pyro.eu.org/stuff/rcS.png Regards, -- Steven Chamberlain ste...@pyro.eu.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
