Package: mongodb
Version: 1:1.2.2-1
Severity: important

Mongodb depends on upstart-job which is only provided by upstart at this
point and it conflicts with sysvinit. This being the default boot system
for Debian currently, requiring it to be replaced for one package seems
like a bug. The discussions on debian-devel seem to back this up...

    > When should maintainers start adding upstart jobs to their packages?

    Not before the upstart compat package that provides upstart-job for
    sysvinit-based systems is available.

This compatibility package is not available yet.
