# `init.d-script-missing-dependency-on-local_fs`

The given init script seems to refer to `/var`, possibly using a file from there. Without a dependency on `$local_fs` in Required-Start or Required-Stop, as appropriate, the init script might be run before `/var` is mounted or after it's unmounted.

Using Should-Start or Should-Stop to declare the dependency is conceptually incorrect since the $local_fs facility is always available. Required-Start or Required-Stop should be used instead.

Severity: | `error`
Experimental: | `false`
