Subject: sysv-rc: update-rc.d with defaults performs wrong actions
Package: sysv-rc
Version: 2.86.ds1-59
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

When calling:

# update-rc.d -f foo defaults 40 16
 Adding system startup for /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend ...
   /etc/rc0.d/K16foo -> ../init.d/foo
   /etc/rc1.d/K16foo -> ../init.d/foo
   /etc/rc6.d/K16foo -> ../init.d/foo
   /etc/rc40.d/S40foo -> ../init.d/foo
update-rc.d: symlink: No such file or directory

rc40.d is the wrong directory (And thankfully doesn't exist) but this means 
that packages using the 'defaults' call to set up their rc.d symlinks will be 
broken on install.

This is fixed in 1-60, but not noted in the changelog.

I have marked this bug critical because and 1-59 is frozen in lenny currently, 
please get 1-60 or a ported fix into lenny ASAP.

Thanks for your time :)
