Package:  citadel-webcit
Version:  7.60-dfsg-1
Severity: important
Tags:     patch
User:     initscripts-ng-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: incorrect-dependency

With dependency based boot sequencing, I discovered what I believe is
a bug in the init.d/webcit script.  The server started uses syslog,
and should start after the syslog facility is available.  For this it
need to depend on $syslog.

<URL:http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.1.0/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/initscrcomconv.html>
documents the LSB header format.  Some debian notes are available from
<URL:http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts>.

This patch should solve the issue.  Without it, the init.d script is
started too early and stopped to late.  I also improved the short
description, but did not know what to write for the long description
and left that one alone.
