[Pkg-systemd-maintainers] Bug#634472: dependency cycles caused by faulty chkconfig headers

We had another user report about having a dependency cycle due to
setserial being installed

This dependency cycle is apparently caused by the faulty chkconfig
header, or more likely the mismatch between the LSB and the chkconfig
header:


### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:             setserial
# Required-Start:       $remote_fs
# Required-Stop:        $remote_fs
# Default-Start:        S
# Default-Stop:         0 1 6
# Short-Description:    controls configuration of serial ports
# Description:          Set and/or report the configuration information
#                       associated with a serial port. This information
#                       includes what I/O port and which IRQ a particular
#                       serial port is using.
### END INIT INFO
# chkconfig: 2345 50 75


Since the chkconfig header is probably useless on Debian due to not
being used and tested, the best cause of action is most likely to simply
not parse that header at all, which Tollef agreed with on IRC.

For completeness sake, I'm attaching a list of packages/init scripts
which currently ship chkconfig headers in Debian, which is less then 10%:
