Package: insserv Version: 1.11.0-9 Severity: important The standard (well, regarding a Debian etch/lenny installation) init system has a feature (or well documented behaviour) that update-rc.d does not recreate links in /etc/rc?.d directories that were removed by the user (or local sysadmin) if at least one such link still exists. Unfortunately, the update-rc.d version installed by insserv does just that: It re-installs (for example) /etc/rc2.d/bacula-director on package upgrades, re-enabling a service that is (in this case locally) intended to be started on demand, but shut down in any case (all rc[016].d/K??bac*di* links still exist, just rc[2-5].d/S??bacul*di* were removed).
This is both unexpected and inconsistent with other update-rc.d implementations as far as I can tell.
