[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#540523: sysv-rc: bogus message on runlevel switch

[arne anka]

Package: sysv-rc
Version: 2.87dsf-2
Severity: normal

switching runlevel (here from 3 to 2) produces on my cosole the message
/etc/init.d/rc: line 318: [: /etc/rc3.d/S26network-manager: binary
operator expected

the line in question reads
[ -f $previous_start ] && [ ! -f $stop ] && continue

i have no idea, what that means, except maybe the hphen in
network-manager?
