package dependency

I'm not sure this is correct list, but thought I would start here.

I have been playing with rootstock to created ARM filesystems.

There is a package called "ubuntu-minimal" that created a
command-line filesystem from jaunty distribution.

Under karmic the generated filesystem doesn't do so well,
and I tracked it down to dbus not being included.  The udevd
daemon was unhappy and most of the /dev tree didn't get created.

I believe that upstart has a dependency on dbus and this
issue surfaces with karmic because upstart is now in charge of
the boot process.

If I add dbus to the package list (ubuntu-minimal dbus) the generated
filesystem is very happy to boot.

Should this be raised on rootstock or upstart, or both?
Cheers,
T.mike
