While installing/removing any package in my Debian Squeeze box, I was getting the following error :
Setting up initscripts (2.88dsf-13.1+squeeze1) …
insserv: warning: script ‘oracle-xe’ missing LSB tags and overrides
insserv: There is a loop between service munin-node and oracle-xe if stopped
insserv: loop involving service oracle-xe at depth 2
insserv: loop involving service munin-node at depth 1
insserv: Stopping oracle-xe depends on munin-node and therefore on system facility `$all’ which can not be true!
insserv: exiting now without changing boot order!
update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header
dpkg: error processing initscripts (–configure):

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I tried many things like
1. rebuilding apt-get cache
2. apt-get forcefully uninstallation
3. dpkg-reconfigure
But got no success then I asked for the solution on ILUGC mailing list and finally got the following solution :
4. As I have already uninstalled the oracle-xe and munin-node , but this uninstallation haven’t removed the oracle-xe and munin-node entry in the /etc/init.d. So , I have manually removed it and the problem is solved.
