Bug#554830: introduce virtual facility x-display-manager for dependency based boot system

[Jonas Meurer]

Package: gdm
Severity: normal
User: initscripts-ng-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: missing-provides

hello,

as discussed in bug #553338, it would be useful to have a virtual
facility for display mangers in order to use it in LSB headers of
initscripts.

see http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts/DebianVirtualFacilities for
more information.

all packages that provide a display manager, to my knowledge gdm, kdm,
ldm, nodm, sdm, wdm and xdm, need to provide a file at
/etc/insserv.conf.d/<package> with the following content:

$x-display-manager		<service_name>

for your particular package (gdm) this would be:

$x-display-manager		gdm

in /etc/insserv.conf.d/gdm

greetings,
 jonas
