Well, I have, and update-rc.d is _specifically_ the correct way to do the job. Admittedly, debian-policy says "any _automated_ manipulation of the various runlevel behaviours by maintainer scripts must be performed using update-rc.d" (emphasis mine) which still permits other manual operations. Sure, you can perform a manual operation any way you want, but it's a really bad idea to tell people how to do something the wrong way when they clearly don't have a clue what they've done wrong in the first place. -- derek
