Ouch, that's quite nasty. :( Moving the invoke-rc.d call below the debhelper marker would take care of this particular situation, however looking at other packages there's also the upgrade case to take into consideration: if it's already running we should shut down the sysvinit-controlled daemon before restarting it controlled by systemd. At least that's what openssh-server does. -- Romain Francoise <rfranco...@debian.org> http://people.debian.org/~rfrancoise/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
