Its presence does not imply that we believe that Debian fully complies with the Linux Standard Base, and should not be construed as a statement that Debian is LSB-compliant." However, except for a few minor issues with cron script handling, we believe Debian is as LSB-compliant as any commercial distribution claiming certification. A detailed readme file is contained in the package indicating where our implementation differs from the letter (or apparent letter) of the specification.
