[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#542811: Bug#542811: invoke-rc.d starts disabled startup scripts

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

As far as I can see, the issue here are incorrect user expectations.

If you do not want the services to start from init.d/rc during boot,
you need to disable the services by changing the S* symlinks to K*
symlinks.  Removing the symlinks is not going to work the way you want
it.  Disabling services like this will work correctly with
invoke-rc.d, init.d/rc and update-rc.d, while removing the symlinks
will not.

Removing the symlinks send you into undefined invoke-rc.d territory,
and thus you can expect anything, even a restarted service. :)

Happy hacking,
