Lintian can as far as I know not run the postinst, and thus do not
know which of the potential several update-rc.d calls in the source
will be used. I've seen postinst code asking debconf questions to
decide which arguments to pass to update-rc.d.
Thus I do not know how to detect it reliably using lintian.
Happy hacking,
