If you're "not fixing for now", then don't tag it wontfix, tag it help.
A package split isn't required, I propose a NO_START flag, or whatever
you prefer as a name for the flag.
Please consider the attached patch which also fixes the following bug
when the package is removed and not purged:
bee# /etc/init.d/jetty start
Starting Jetty servlet engine: mesg: /dev/pts/0: Operation not permitted
-su: /usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-sun/bin/java -Xmx256m
-Djava.awt.headless=true -Djava.io.tmpdir="/var/cache/jetty"
-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib -DSTART=/etc/jetty/start.config
-Djetty.home=/usr/share/jetty -jar /usr/share/jetty/lib/start.jar
/etc/jetty/jetty.xml >> /var/log/jetty/out.log 2>&1 &
echo $!: No such file or directory

And still, on my system:
/etc/default/apache2: NO_START=1
/etc/default/bittorrent: START_BTTRACK=0
/etc/default/bluetooth: HIDD_ENABLED=0, DUND_ENABLED=0, PAND_ENABLED=0
/etc/default/bootlogd: BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=No
/etc/default/dbus: ENABLED=1
/etc/default/distcc: STARTDISTCC="false"
/etc/default/fetchmail: START_DAEMON=no
/etc/default/hddtemp: RUN_DAEMON="false"
/etc/default/irda-utils: ENABLE="true"
...
(and this is only for options that I could read in the default file,
when there the package ships a default file...)
It's really convenient, please consider it.
Cheers,
