Hello,

To summarize :

1) This reverts an expected and accepted behavior in the Debian community where
daemons should start when installed with an adequate and secure configuration.
Other ftpd packages like pure-ftpd, twoftpd, tftpd-hpa and muddleftpd among
other all do start upon install.

2) This breaks the DEP8 test debian/tests/smoke that expects the vsftpd service
to be running. You might want to fix this or disable the test. This is how the
change in behavior got detected.

3) The installed vsftpd configuration is not considered secure enough to be
enabled by default.

Thank you for looking into this.

Kind regards,

...Louis
