I'd rather like to suggest of forbidden using of initscript in redhat-lsb for fedora packages. Despite of the depencencies issue, we can easily switch from /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions to /lib/lsb/init-functions and historically /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd and /usr/lib/lsb/remove_initd is completely broken for several time( See bugzilla). I cann't see any advantages of using initscript in redhat-lsb instead of initsripts package. But I'm also like to see splitting redhat-lsb into several subpackages, it'll benefit a lot to some third-party packages/softwares which require redhat-lsb. It's unacceptable to pull in some graphic libs for servers when installing redhat-lsb . Regards. Chen Lei
