I'm not quite sure, but I believe it is because it is ment as a level of abstraction, and not something that normally is fulfilled by a single script. Anyway, as far as I can see, the insserv package do not handle virtual facilities in the provides field very well, so I recommend against its use. > If anything, I would have thought mentioning some other daemon's name > was evil, but not mentioning one of the $* capabilities. I agree. I'm not quite sure if this should be considered a bug in check-initd-order or not, but believe insserv handle multiple provides fairly well. I guess we need to read the LSB specification to find the answer to what the correct behavior is, and if it isn't there, request a clarification in the LSB standard.
