Package: statd
Version: 1.0.1-6.1
Severity: serious
Justification: missing dependency

When testing statd with piuparts, I get the following error:

  Setting up statd (1.0.1-6.1) ...
  /var/lib/dpkg/info/statd.postinst: line 5: /etc/init.d/inetd: No such
file or
directory
  dpkg: error processing statd (--configure):
   subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127

The chroot that piuparts builds for testing does not contain the inetd
program, and therefore also doesn't contain the /etc/init.d/inetd
script. This may indicate a missing dependency, but it might be that
calling the init.d script only if it is there is a better fix than
depending on inetd. We have, after all, several inetd implementations in
Debian.

Also, you shouldn't call the init.d script directly, but via
invoke-rc.d. See policy 9.3.3.2.
