Package: xinetd Version: 1:2.3.14-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 9.3.3.2
The xinetd postinst, lines 4-18, stops inetd, xinetd, and portmap directly, without using invoke-rc.d and therefore without consulting policy-rc.d. This creates a problem e.g. when I install xinetd inside a chroot: the postinst script stops all three of these daemons outside of the chroot, in contradiction to the policy that I've set in policy-rc.d. It also violates Debian Policy 9.3.3.2, which states that "package maintainer scripts must use `invoke-rc.d' to invoke the `/etc/init.d/*' initscripts, instead of calling them directly."
