Dear Maintainer,
please consider to relax the run-time dependency on update-inetd to
(update-inetd|reconf-inetd). I have prepared a patch.

This is not how it is supposed to work: reconf-inetd does not provide
the same API of update-inetd, so they cannot be alternatives.
Individual packages are supposed to depend either on update-inetd or
reconf-inetd, but because of historical reasons openbsd-inetd also
depends on update-inetd to not break packages missing the dependency.
I will be happy to remove the update-inetd dependency if you can show
that all packages using it in their maintainer scripts depend on it.
