[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#625638: puppet-common: Doesn't allow installation with file-rc

[Christian Hofstaedtler]

Package: puppet-common
Version: 2.6.8-1
Severity: normal

Hi!

puppet-common depends on sysv-rc (>= 2.87), without an alternative on
file-rc. This prevents users from using file-rc with puppet.

Also, in sid *and* squeeze, sysv-rc is always >= 2.87, and this
dependency is not present in the squeeze version of puppet-common.

To facilitate using puppet together with file-rc, please add an 
"| file-rc" alternative; or is there anything missing in file-rc
which prevents this from working?

Thanks,
Christian
