Package: hddtemp
Version: 0.3-beta15-33
Severity: normal

During configuration, the user is effectively asked whether they want
hddtemp to run as a daemon twice.  Once when RUN_DAEMON is set and
again when SYSLOG is set.

This is more confusing when one edits /etc/default/hddtemp directly,
instead of reconfiguring with dpkg-reconfigure.  The comments in
/etc/default/hddtemp imply that setting RUN_DAEMON to false is enough
to disable hddtemp from running on boot, but that is not the case.

Either the comments in /etc/default/hddtemp should be changed to
reflect this, or (preferably) RUN_DAEMON should be the only "master
switch".
