Actually I meant update-rc.d (not invoke-rc.d) which might be 
called in postinst scripts. Also "man update-rc.d" says:

        "[...]
        Please note that this program was designed for use in package
        maintainer scripts and, accordingly, has only the very limited
        functionality required by such scripts.  System administrators
        are not encouraged to use update-rc.d to manage runlevels.
        They should edit the links directly or use runlevel editors 
        such as sysv-rc-conf and bum instead.
        [...]"
