Two remarks: * 'proftpd-basic' depends on 'xinetd' or similar super server. Thus, try to remove Xinetd, and Proftpd-basic is also eliminated! * A detection mechanism in the init-script: if """proftpd is present in configfiles for inetd or xinetd""" then RUN="no" if which inetd >/dev/null || which xinetd >/dev/null then INETD="yes" else INETD="no" fi else ...... fi This has better granularity than only counting dependencies and inspecting configuration files. -- Mats Erik Andersson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
