[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#545356: initscripts: Missing dependency on sysvinit-utils

[Raphael Manfredi]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.87dsf-2+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss

I "apt-geet install initscript" and it failed to grab the corresponding
sysvinit-utils package.

This caused /sbin/fstab-decode to be missing and therefore /etc/init.d/umountfs
would not properly umount the filesystems, causing an fsck on all of them
at the next boot.

There is probably a missing dependency between "initscript" and the
"sysvinit-utils" package.
