lirc, a package for IR remote controls, has 'need net' in the init script /etc/init.d/lircd. I see no reason for this as lircd does not use the network. In my particular case, when eth0 is not connected it means I cannot use my remote control. My proposal is to remove the 'need net' from the init script, as it works perfectly fine without. Attached is a patch to make this change. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

you are right, i also can't see a reason for it, so i removed it
