We have : /etc/init.d/postfix # Provides: postfix mail-transport-agent /etc/init.d/fetchmail # Required-Start: $network $local_fs $remote_fs $syslog $mail-transport-agent but fetchmail starts before postfix. In /etc/init.d/.depend.start fetchmail is also before postfix. Only a "Required-Start: postfix" will make postfix to start before fetchmail.
[rpnpif] Yes, postfix fail to provide the virtual facility $mail-transport-agent. Why do you report this as a bug against sysv-rc? It is a bug against postfix. See <URL: http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts/DebianVirtualFacilities > for more info on virtual facilities Happy hacking,
[Petter Reinholdtsen] OK, Petter. Thank you for your advice. My issue is not for the good package. Sorry. This issue can be closed. I do make now an issue for Postfix package. Thank you.
