[Bug 1385817] Re: initscripts package fails to upgrade if there are local init scripts on the system with no LSB headers

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

If /usr/share/doc/insserv/README.Debian is not enough to resolve.

Please open a new bug report, with full output from apt-get dist-upgrade / dpkg --configure -a
WIth all files referenced.
There should be an upgrade log from insserv which will point out the bits it is complaining about.

Title:
  initscripts package fails to upgrade if there are local init scripts
  on the system with no LSB headers

Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in sysvinit package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The dependency-based boot sequencing originally introduced upstream
  with Debian 6.0 is now always enabled in Ubuntu 14.10.

  For optimal sequencing, all init.d scripts should declare their
  dependencies in an LSB header. This is already the case for scripts
  shipped in Ubuntu, but users should check their local scripts and
  consider adding that information.

  For more information on this feature refer to the information
  available in /usr/share/doc/insserv/README.Debian.
