Hi!

To handle #542225, the init script from the kbd package (an alternative
to the currently standard console-tools package, planned to become the
new default in the mid-term future) had to change its LSB “Provides:”
word from “console-screen” to “kbd”.  /etc/init.d/gdm currently only has
a “Should-Start:” on the former name, which is now exclusive to
console-tools.  To make sure your script is still run after
/etc/init.d/kbd, insserv’s non-standardised “X-Start-Before:” header is
used.  This should be a temporary solution.

Please consider applying the attached patch.  It adds the “kbd” word to
the requirements of your init script, so the list of reverse
dependencies in /etc/init.d/kbd can be eventually removed again.

Cheers,
