Package: timidity
Version: 2.13.2-34
Severity: normal
Updating to version 2.13.2-34, I found that the /etc/init.d/timidity script was
still present. Most confusing was that 'dpkg -L timidity' still listed the
script as
being present in the package, but
dpkg-deb -c /var/cache/apt/archives/timidity_2.13.2-34_amd64.deb
was not showing it.
Not wanting to leave my system in a confused state, I decided to purge
'timidity', and then reinstall it. That succeeded in getting rid of the
initscript.
Unfortunately, hanging links to the initscript were left in
/etc/rc[2345].d
which I had to remove manually using 'update-rc.d timidity remove'. Something
is amiss here: either the purge failed to remove those links, or the purge
succeeded but the reinstall caused them to reappear.
I have been wanting to test dependency-based booting, but I have been
waiting for the 'timidity' issue to be resolved for quite some time.
Fortunately,
I don't need 'timidity-daemon', but until that initscript is fixed anyone using
the daemon package will not be able to use the new dependency-based
booting in 'sysv-rc'.
