Public bug reported:

This is not a critical or important bug. However, it is worth fixing, please.
#1 ubuntu jaunty testing installs an rsync package as part of ubuntu-standard.
#2 the services program shows a checked, hence "running" entry.
#3 removing this 112kb package also removes ubuntu-standard.

For the sake of simplicity, ease of use, and straight-forward development,
This package should be:

At minimum, the services panel, the entry should be shown as un-checked.

On full distro release, many may make re-builds customizing their own
ubuntu flavor, and may NOT want this package, but may wish to maintain
ubuntu-standard since using normal repos and normal updating methods.

Best situation is to remove the dependency on ubuntu, and optionally,
simply for convenience , remove the rsync package from the final release
builds of ubuntu.

** Affects: rsync (Ubuntu)

ubuntu-standard is dependant on rsync installed, most end users do not use, 
rsync properly does not run but shows a checked entry in 
system>administration>services that may confuse users.
