you're right, it is not state anywhere that it actually would be doing so. On the other hand, Debian Policy Manual Section 9.3.3 states that packages should call invoke-rc.d to start/stop services in preinst, postinst and so on and [1] tells about declaring dependencies. As not satisfying these already declared dependencies breaks the applications, and as long as not all packages should implement their own Required-Stop / Required-Start parsing, it seemed natural to me that invoke-rc.d would do this. Is this discussion obsoleted by systemd adoption in the next debian release? Regards, M.
