Hello - I am new to Debian and have packaged some software which lets the boot scripts (/etc/rc[12345].d) run in parallel. It also supports visualisation of services, dependencies and timings.
As this is the first release on debian, I'd be grateful if someone with more packaging experience than myself could take a look at it, especially since the installation process patches /etc/init.d/rc. The .deb is at: http://www.fastboot.org/download/binaries/debian/ One known bug is that the -ldb library is currently statically linked into the daemon, and it ought to be dynamically linked. I haven't yet figured how to bind the linker to a specific version of db that's known to be widely deployed. Thanks! Leni. Package: serel Architecture: any Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.2), libglib (>= 1.2) Replaces: sysvinit (>= 2.74) Description: run boot scripts in parallel Build-Depends: redland (>= 0.9.10)
