Bug#1105037: lintian: downgrade non-virtual-facility-in-initd-script to mere Warning
Package: lintian
Version: 2.122.0
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: martin-eric.racine@iki.fi
Lintian pointlessly marks non-virtual-facility-in-initd-script as an Error, even though the explanation states that "The given /etc/init.d script depends on a non-virtual facility that should probably be replaced by a virtual facility." SHOULD is the keyword, and there are indeed good reasons for packages to want to ensure that they are started after specific packages they relate to. SHOULD is not expected to produce an Error, only a Warning. Please fix this accordingly.
