Package: tinyproxy
Version: 1.6.3-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

I've recently experienced some confusing occurences where tinyproxy
would run on a system where I thought it had been disabled by explicitly
doing "/etc/init.d/tinyproxy stop".

This can be traced to the fact that tinyproxy's logrotate script does a
restart every two weeks, and "restart" starts tinyproxy even if it's not
running.

While the individual steps seem reasonable enough, I think the resulting
behaviour is unexpected and should be changed to "tinyproxy stays down
if not running", either by changing the logrotate script or the init
script.
