And *that's* the problem; update-inetd. I've run into this myself,
too, and the solution is to not use update-inetd as a daily
administration tool, or to modify its default behavior a bit. The
manpage does actually cover this, but toward the bottom:
EXAMPLES
You've installed ssh (secure encrypting remote shell) and
wish to disable its unencrypted cousins:
update-inetd --comment-chars '#' --disable login,shell,exec,telnet
Using a single '#' character as a comment-char prevents
update-inetd to reenable the services on package upgrades.
Without the --comment-chars flag, update-inetd is really only useful
as a tool in the context of a package install/upgrade/removal.
