Bug#591390: tomcat6: A stopped tomcat is implicitly restarted on upgrade

[v.nix.is]

Package: tomcat6
Version: 6.0.28-1
Severity: minor

When I do:

    sudo service tomcat6 stop
    sudo aptitude upgrade

tomcat6 will be started again as part of the upgrade:

    Setting up tomcat6 (6.0.28-1) ...
    Installing new version of config file /etc/tomcat6/web.xml ...
    Starting Tomcat servlet engine: tomcat6.

Note however that tomcat6 was still in my rc.d:
    
    $ ls -l /etc/rc?.d/*tomcat*
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug  2 18:03 /etc/rc0.d/K02tomcat6 -> ../init.d/tomcat6
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug  2 18:03 /etc/rc1.d/K02tomcat6 -> ../init.d/tomcat6
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug  2 18:03 /etc/rc2.d/S01tomcat6 -> ../init.d/tomcat6
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug  2 18:03 /etc/rc3.d/S01tomcat6 -> ../init.d/tomcat6
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug  2 18:03 /etc/rc4.d/S01tomcat6 -> ../init.d/tomcat6
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug  2 18:03 /etc/rc5.d/S01tomcat6 -> ../init.d/tomcat6
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug  2 18:03 /etc/rc6.d/K02tomcat6 -> ../init.d/tomcat6

I haven't tested this after doing:

    sudo update-rc.d -f tomcat6 remove

Perhaps this is a non-issue. I haven't found anything in the Debian
policy manual that contradicts it (but I also haven't looked very
much).

But it's uncomfortable to have a manually stopped tomcat be started
again on upgrade.
