Rcconf sets K links when you de-select the package. The daemon process of the package will be stopped safely when the system is shutdown after you de-select the package. I tried your instruction and can see wwwoffle and other packages. Of course, I can see K links as follows: # update-rc.d -f wwwoffle remove Removing any system startup links for /etc/init.d/wwwoffle ... /etc/rc0.d/K20wwwoffle /etc/rc1.d/K20wwwoffle /etc/rc2.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc3.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc4.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc5.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc6.d/K20wwwoffle # update-rc.d wwwoffle defaults Adding system startup for /etc/init.d/wwwoffle ... /etc/rc0.d/K20wwwoffle -> ../init.d/wwwoffle /etc/rc1.d/K20wwwoffle -> ../init.d/wwwoffle /etc/rc6.d/K20wwwoffle -> ../init.d/wwwoffle /etc/rc2.d/S20wwwoffle -> ../init.d/wwwoffle /etc/rc3.d/S20wwwoffle -> ../init.d/wwwoffle /etc/rc4.d/S20wwwoffle -> ../init.d/wwwoffle /etc/rc5.d/S20wwwoffle -> ../init.d/wwwoffle # rcconf <--- de-select # find /etc/rc?* -name \*wwwoffle* /etc/rc0.d/K00wwwoffle /etc/rc1.d/K00wwwoffle /etc/rc2.d/K00wwwoffle /etc/rc3.d/K00wwwoffle /etc/rc4.d/K00wwwoffle /etc/rc5.d/K00wwwoffle /etc/rc6.d/K00wwwoffle # rcconf <--- select # rcconf <--- de-select The following result is after wwwoffle is selected by rcconf: # find /etc/rc?* -name \*wwwoffle* /etc/rc0.d/K20wwwoffle /etc/rc1.d/K20wwwoffle /etc/rc2.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc3.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc4.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc5.d/S20wwwoffle /etc/rc6.d/K20wwwoffle Here is de-selecting wwwoffle only with --verbose option. # rcconf --verbose /usr/sbin/update-rc.d -f wwwoffle remove ; /usr/sbin/update-rc.d wwwoffle stop 00 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 .
