$ sudo update-bootsystem-insserv
info: Checking if it is safe to convert to dependency based boot.
error: Problems running insserv:
  insserv: script postgresql-8.2: service postgresql already provided!

Both /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.2 and /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.3 (and past and 
future versions) provide "postgresql".  This was an intentional decision to 
allow other scripts to refer to any available PostgreSQL server version.

Now if insserv doesn't handle that, we have a big problem, because it would 
make the dependency based boot system unusable for systems that have 
PostgreSQL installed and want to upgrade between major versions.

I didn't find anything in the LSB specification that would disallow that.  So 
I think insserv needs to be fixed.
