I understood the question. Do you understand the answer?
BUGS
The “REQUIRE” keyword is misleading: It doesn't describe which daemons
have to be running before a script will be started. It describes which
scripts must be placed before it in the dependency ordering. For exam‐
ple, if your script has a “REQUIRE” on “named”, it means the script
must
be placed after the “named” script in the dependency ordering, not
neces‐
sarily that it requires named(8) to be started or enabled.
