Package: dropbear
Version: 0.45-2
Severity: normal

If drop bear is not enabled in /etc/default/dropbear, the following 
command gives no indication of the situation:

    /etc/init.d/dropbear start

.. and the user assumes that dropbear was started when it was not.

SUGGESTION

Please display a message that dropbear is disabled (like openSSH gives),
something like this in case user tries "reload", "strart" etc.

   Start ignored. Dropbear is not enabled in /etc/default/dropbear,
