Last night it occurred to me to try installing sysvinit (to replace
upstart) and sure enough, netatalk started at boot when sysvinit is
installed. I then put the system back to its previous state (with
upstart instead of sysvinit), and netatalk no longer started on boot.
When you apt-get install sysvinit on an Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10 system, here
are the packages it touches:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install sysvinit
[sudo] password for twt:
Reading package lists... Done

The following packages will be REMOVED:
apparmor apparmor-utils startup-tasks system-services ubuntu-minimal upstart
upstart-compat-sysv upstart-logd
The following NEW packages will be installed:
sysvinit

After unpacking 4395kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
** For anyone reproducing this procedure, I recommend going to the
console and switching to single user mode (using the telinit 1 command
for example) and making sure everything else is stopped before replacing
upstart. It's really hard to shut the system down when upstart is still
running with all its pieces gone. I had removed it in multi-user mode
and finally resorted to killing the power to the cpu. **
