The typical dependencies are the virtual facilities listed on <URL:http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts>. The dependencies I suggested should cover your list. > Hm.

Existing installations will keep the incorrect symlinks in rc?.d/ unless something is done in the postinst script. Changing the runlevel list require special handling, while changing dependencies will take effect automatically. > Any pointers to other packages with similar problem, and how it was > fixed? The last version of the quota package solved a similar issue.
