Hrm. It might be worth making it clearer which fields are mandatory in:
http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts
since the natural thing coming at this from a Debian perspective is to
assume that Provides: is for declaring extra names, not the name of the
script itself. That said, the current documentation is much clearer
about this than the version I was using so perhaps that'd not help too
much.
FWIW since I actually had to think about it now I'm going to declare the
individual daemons, not a virtual nis service since those are more
sane things to depend on and it'll provide better future proofing.
