Hi Shinichi, you refence the wrong bug. The problem is described in bug #222384. postinst sets up wrong init.d links. You can fix it with:
/usr/sbin/update-rc.d -f mason remove > /dev/null
/usr/sbin/update-rc.d mason start 41 S . > /dev/null
The bug is fixed in the unstable version but not in the sarge version. I
hope that there will be a security fix for sarge.
The bug #176654 is a different problem.
