Hi,

| Although I do agree with the improved simplicity, I do not agree that
| *all* incorrect orderings are simple to fix (or necessarily package
| bugs).  Unfortunately, there are some packages which require system
| dependent ordering.  The most obvious example is the set packages
| modifying the block device layers.  Do you run LVM on top of LUKS on top
| of MD, or was it the other way round?

If you do this from the init scripts, you can't have non-trivial
ordering anyway and you want udev or something processing hotplug events
for this.

(Nontrivial ordering being X on Y on X.)

Cheers,
