Right. The pdns-server should list a relationship to slapd, and pdns-recursor should not. > pdns can make use of pdns-recursor but it can also fetch data from > different sources so no, I don't think there is need for any > condition between pdns and pdns-recursor. So they can start in any order during boot? I notice they used to start with sequence number 19 and 20, and thus believed they should continue to have that boot order. > What happens if I have slapd listed in should-start / should-stop if > slapd isn't installed ? Nothing. The should-start statement mean that if the provides listed there are present, the currenet script should start after the scripts providing the listed provides. The should-* headers only take effect if the packages/provides listed there are installed/present. > (pdns can also read data from mysql / postgresql, or should those > two also be listed in should-start / should-stop ?)
