Package: insserv (1.21.0-1.1)

[ Source: insserv  ]

boot sequence organizer using LSB init.d script dependency information

The insserv program is used by the standard SysV-based init system. It updates the order of symlinks in /etc/rc?.d/ based on dependencies specified by LSB headers in the init.d scripts themselves.

These declared relations between scripts make it possible to optimize the boot sequence for the currently installed set of packages, while detecting and rejecting dependency loops.

Using insserv incorrectly can result in an unbootable system.
