Package: lsb-base Version: 3.1-22 Severity: wishlist Hi
Yesterday I saw a package which uses the shell functions provided by lsb-base but did not have a dependency against it and I came across this topic. Currently lsb-base is required and prodivdes the init script functions which should be used by the init scripts if possible. Therefore I would suggest to mark lsb-base essential and thus making the dependency against lsb-base unnecessary (of course except for specific versions) as we want the init scripts in Debian to get standardized with the lsb functions anyway. Of course this is a thing for lenny and too late for etch. Well these were my thoughts about it and I am curious of what the rest things.
