I suppose that each of the four fireall packages could supply 'shorewall-firewall', then shorewall-init could depend on 'shorewall-firewall'. That way, the dependency would be satisfied so long as shorewall, shorewall6, shorewall-lite or shorewall6-lite was installed. But the real dependency is still determined by the PRODUCTS settings. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather who Shoreline, \ died peacefully in his sleep.
