To be able to check boot script order, and also to be able to start boot scripts in parallel, it is important to know the dependencies of the various boot scripts. The Linux Software Base specifies a init.d header file format useful for this purpose, and adding such header to the anacron init.d script would make it possible for me to use this information to check the current sequence and to speed up the debian boot. I am working on a system to update the boot sequence based on these dependencies, and would like see this as the default in Lenny. Because of this, it is nice if the dependencies was updated quickly. <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>. Here is a patch to document the dependencies. I hope this is correct. diff -ur whitelister-0.8.orig/debian/whitelister.init whitelister-0.8/debian/whitelister.init --- whitelister-0.8.orig/debian/whitelister.init 2008-02-20 08:51:38.000000000 +0100 +++ whitelister-0.8/debian/whitelister.init 2008-02-20 08:54:22.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,4 +1,13 @@ #! /bin/sh +### BEGIN INIT INFO +# Provides: whitelister +# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog +# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog +# X-Start-Before: postfix +# X-Stop-After: postfix +# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 +# Default-Stop: 0 1 6 +### END INIT INFO # # whitelister start/stop the whitelister deamon for postfix # (priority should be smaller than that of postfix) As the stop script do not seem to do much except killing the daemon, that task might be better left to the sendsigs script in runlevel 0 and 6, to speed up shutdown. If this is indeed the case, I recommend removing 0 and 6 from the Default-Stop list. The pid file handling might need to be changed for this to work properly.
