reopen 573551 thanks The fix in 2.6.4-1 in testing is all well and good, but the bug applies to stable. Stable has the removed "update-rc.d stop" feature, and so in stable, I can't actually convince puppet to ensure the service is stopped.
Ideally, update-rc.d wouldn't have completely removed a feature (failing silently) that hadn't even been flagged as deprecated (as far as I'm aware) in oldstable, without providing any forwards or backwards compatibility (in oldstable, you can't run 'update-rc.d disable' because that doesn't exist, and in stable, you can't run 'update-rc.d stop' because it silently fails to do anything useful. Who thought that would be a good idea? -- Tim Connors | ✉ Australian Astronomical Observatory ➥ http://site.aao.gov.au/twc | Coonabarabran, NSW 2357, Australia ❨✸ Telescope Operator/Sysadmin | ☎ +61 2 6842 6286 _______________________________________________ Pkg-sysvinit-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-sysvinit-devel
