	Why on earth should debian init scripts follow the
 requirements for distribution agnostic packaging? Debian packages are
 meant to run on Debian systems, and we can depend on things in debian policy

	Debian policy is for Debian packages. LSB is for LSB compliant
 third party packages. All Debian has to do is make sure the LSB
 packages can run on Debian machines.
