Yeah, to make sure the startpar package do not have to conflict with
sysvinit-utils.

See

for the email where I ask for feedback on the approach.

Hm, my plan is to remove the /etc/init/startpar-bridge.conf during
upgrades to a sysvinit-utils package depending on startpar (see the
package in experimental).  Will this not work?  Something in
particular I need to adjust to keep upstart working in the process?  I
believed it would be enough to depend on startpar and remove the
/etc/init/startpar-bridge.conf file during upgrade.
