Isn't policy-rc.d a cleaner solution? AFAIK nothing in policy requires a package to use start-stop-daemon, but it does say that maintainer scripts [1]should use invoke-rc.d. pcmcia-cs, for example, does not use start-stop-daemon, although I could change it to do that. Maybe both techniques should be used since invoke-rc.d is not a strict requirement yet. [1] Actually, it says "should" at one place and "may" at another, together with a "strongly recommended" and a footnote saying that it will become a "must" in the future.
