Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.13
Severity: normal
I have an application which has an init.d script written in Python,
intended for use in desktop environments. The script will not
start before /usr is mounted (due to the runlevel that it starts on),
and as Python is virtually an Essential package, it is very unlikely to
be removed from a system.
Please either add an exception for Python, for scripts starting in the
multiuser runlevels, or both.

Hi,
This has been marked "wontfix" for over 2 years and since (to my
knowledge) the situation has not changed I am closing it. Should the
policy allow python in init.d scripts (or if python becomes essential),
feel free to reopen this bug.
