And what about init.d/mpt-status fragment: [...] # Gracefully exit if the package has been removed. test -x /usr/sbin/mpt-status || exit 0 [...] I suppose it is not a problem to add test -x /usr/bin/daemon || exit 0 or just a variable "RUN_DAEMON" to /etc/defaults/mpt-status > I suggest lowering the severity if this but to wishlist and tagging it > wontfix, or just closing it as invalid. Why? Description of package is "The mpt-status software is a query tool to access the running configuration and status of LSI SCSI HBAs.". It is "to access" and not "to monitor" status of the controller, so in my opinion the dependency strongly restricts usability of this package and thus it should remain at least 'normal' bug.
