No, I can install a package and not have it start perfectly fine. Worse is breakage on package *removal*, especially in situations where the system is wrecked (e.g. package install was aborted) anyway. Breaking apt is more evil than some dæmon not starting during the system run (on large upgrades, a reboot will be done anyway, so the problem is very transient). bye, //mirabilos -- tarent solutions GmbH Rochusstraße 2-4, D-53123 Bonn • http://www.tarent.de/ Tel: +49 228 54881-393 • Fax: +49 228 54881-235 HRB 5168 (AG Bonn) • USt-ID (VAT): DE122264941 Geschäftsführer: Dr. Stefan Barth, Kai Ebenrett, Boris Esser, Alexander Steeg
