Thanks for pointing this out. It would make the postinst much uglier
since all the startup logic is usually hidden behind #DEBHELPER#, but
it's a good last resort.

It might be a good idea and general solution to just install
/usr/sbin/policy-rc.d which just returns 101 during package
installation, and remove it right before creating the actual image.
That will solve the problem for all other daemons as well without much
pain. I'm not on that list, maybe you can send it there?

Thanks,

Martin
