Yes, the documentation and the understanding on how to use the LSB
header have improved quite a lot the last few years.  If you have
suggestions to improve the documentation, just update the wiki
directly. :)

Be careful with this, as two scripts providing the same thing will
make the second script fail to install when dependency based boot
sequencing is enabled.  But I would very much welcome a split, with
one script to restart ypbind, and another script to restart ypserv.
It is really annoying not having a way to restart only one of them
when deploying on a large scale.  It would also be nice to only
install ypserv on the servers, and only ypbind on the clients. :)

Happy hacking,
