[Mathias Brodala]

Package: sysvinit
Version: 2.86.ds1-38.1
Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Trying to start any service via "invoke-rc.d start $service" fails without any
error or effect.

Invoking it with --query yields 101 as return value. Attached is the strace'd
attempt to start the apache2 service.
