When for some reason the init.d dependency infos (/var/lib/init.d/deptree) gets lost, every init.d-script advices the user to run this: * Dependency info is missing! Please run * # /sbin/depscan.sh * to fix this. Though in some situation, /sbin/depscan.sh -u (force update) is necessary to rebuild the dependency tree. As in my opinion "-u" can't hurt, the error message should say: * Dependency info is missing! Please run * # /sbin/depscan.sh -u * to fix this.
-u is misleading itself ... should be -f,--force
TThis should be fixed in baselayout-1.13.0_alpha11. Re-open if you disagree. Basically we have better detection if the deptree is there, broken or needs to be updated.
