Humm, it seems you have been waiting me to update. However, I have also
been waiting because you reassinged this bug and I didn't. So, I believe
you have responsibility to explain why you reassigned this bug to
others. If you want me to explain, you should ask me so.

Anyway, as I noted in the changelog of 2.3, it seems something changes
on update-rc.d that turned into default settings(ON setting) when
call with "stop 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 .".
I continue to investigate toward this but I wonder this will fix the
problem you claimed.

Of course, jidanni, you can send the patch for this as you've sent on
other bugs.

Thanks,
Atsushi
