Quoting Christian Perrier (bubulle at debian.org):

"Small" error in this review: the new templates weren't marked for
translation..:-)

The attached patch should be used instead of the formerly sent one.

-Description: Migrate legacy boot sequencing to dependency based sequencing?
- The boot system is prepared to migrate to dependency based sequencing.
- It is recommended to migrate for the following reasons:
- .
-  * the order of boot and shutdown is calculated dynamically, using
-    dependency information declared within each init.d script, which
-    ensures optimum and correct boot sequence for the set of installed
-    packages
-  * protection against problems introduced by new or upgraded packages
-    by preserving the boot sequence when problems are detected; the boot
-    sequence is only modified if it is safe to do so
-  * potential for further optimization by way of concurrent boot
-    methodology in order to increase boot efficiency
-  * fixes long standing issues with the legacy, static priority based
-    boot ordering.
- .
- This migration process is non-reversible. The legacy way of ordering
- boot scripts using static sequence numbers will be made obsolete by
- choosing to migrate.  Any boot sequence changes done locally will be
- lost and have to redone using dependencies.
- .
- See http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts/DependencyBasedBoot for
- more information about dependency based boot sequencing. To
- reattempt the migration process run 'dpkg-reconfigure sysv-rc'.
+_Description: Migrate legacy boot sequencing to dependency-based sequencing?
+ The boot system is prepared to migrate to dependency-based sequencing.
+ This is an irreversible step, but one that is recommended: it allows
+ the boot process to be optimized for speed and efficiency, and provides
+ a more resilient framework for development.
+ .
+ A full rationale is detailed in /usr/share/doc/sysvinit/README.Debian.gz.
+ If you choose not to migrate now, you can do so later by running
+ "dpkg-reconfigure sysv-rc".
