Package: microcode.ctl
Version: 1.17-13.1
Severity: important

The microcode.ctl init script has the Default-Start value of "2 3 4 5".
However, in the postinst, microcode.ctl uses "update-rc.d microcode.ctl
start 80 S ."  This mismatch causes systemd to get caught in a cycle
which it breaks by not starting dbus, which breaks lots of things on a
laptop system.

It is not microcode.ctl's fault that systemd handles the problem in a
bad way, but it is microcode.ctl's fault that its init script is broken.

According to Michael Biebl (in #622881):
  
  If we assume that the update-rc.d call is correct, the LSB header should have
  Default-Start: S
  Default-Stop:
  
  The Should-Start/Stop: $remote_fs is wrong too as the binary /usr/sbin,
  $remote_fs has to be in Required-Start.
