[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Can't get the boot order correct

Thank you for working on zfs for Linux on Debian.  I use it, and look
forward to the day when it is part of the Debian archive. :)

The stop ordering is controlled by Required-Stop and Should-Stop, and
they should probably have the same content as *-Start to get the reverse
ordering.

When that is said, I have vague memories of multiple provides not
working the way you expect it.  Could you express what you want without
multiple names in the Provides header?

You might find the /usr/share/insserv/check-initd-order script useful to
check the dependencies.  It can output the dependencies in dotty format
to get a dependency graph to look at.

Good luck. :)
