'/etc/rc2.d/K09samba' points to '/samba'. the only thing i did was installing samba and did no major hacks to debian installation (some xorg.conf and apt lists is what i remember). because it belonged to the samba package installation (probably postinst script?), i reported this to you. if you consider this is not a samba issue, please tell me where should i report the bug. even if this doesn't affect samba or system functionality in any way, it is still a bug, it gives an error at every package installation and i think it should be fixed. It's not a bug in the samba package, and it's not a bug in the invoke-rc.d script. It's a bug in whatever caused /etc/rc2.d/K09samba to point to /samba, which most likely means a bug in the administrator, because I don't know of any package that would cause such a broken link (and the samba package definitely does not). The samba package's behavior here is correct: the package is not considered to be installed until the daemon can be successfully started or until the system knows with certainty that the daemon should not be started, and this isn't possible here because the symlink is broken. That's an init script misconfiguration. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
