Yes, this definitely is true and exactly *because* the info for insserv is missing. That's why you *have* to provide that info and it's also why we provide /etc/init.d/skeleton as a template for self written init scripts.
IOW, if he just adds the INIT INFO header, which won't harm on other distributions, he will be fine. Other 3rd party vendors do that, too. Please point him to the fact that this is the LSB conform way of doing it, cf. http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/refspecs/LSB_1.2.0/gLSB/initscrcomconv.html In fact, he can (and should) call /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd to install his script (which calls insserv, if he likes it or not) Peter
