mysql do not require $named to start.  The init.d script relation in
mysql state that if both mysql and the package implementing $named is
both installed, mysql should start after the package implementing
$named.  So this dependency only kick in when both packages are
installed on the same machine.

Yes.  And the problematic relationship only kick in if both are
installed on the same host.

Same here.
