This is correct. Nowadays invoke-rc.d calls daemon-reload, so doing it
twice is a bit excessive.

I think in a case like yours, where the package manager is not involved,
doing an implicit reload for not-found in the lsb hook makes sense.
After all, we are pretty sure the sysv init script actually exists. So
the missing generated service file is indeed a pretty good indicator for
a missing daemon-reload.

So something like the attached patch?
