This is already supported using virtual facilities, and not duplicate provides. See <URL: http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts > and <URL: http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts/DebianVirtualFacilities > for more information. The toolbox is available, the package maintainers just need to use it. Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
