Hello, I'd like to have a way to start fcron automatically, but only if a subpackage is installed. I have (locally) implemented the following: The initscripts are started automatically, but they do: [ -e /etc/sysconfig/fcron ] && . /etc/sysconfig/fcron case "$1" in start) if [ "z$FCROND_STARTUP" = 'z' ]; then exit 6 fi So if $FCROND_STARTUP is not set they won't start. Then I have package that only contains /etc/sysconfig/fcron, called fcron-startup, with, in /etc/sysconfig/fcron: FCROND_STARTUP=1 This seemed like a good idea to me, however when there is no /etc/sysconfig/fcron, /etc/init.d/fcron start is just silent. Another possibility would be to put the initscripts in a separate package and have them started automatically, but I preferred having them in the main package but switched on and off.
