There are so much flame war on that list. Also my English is not that good and my spare time not that much that I can read any mail in the list; sorry. However: > > be installed too.

Hmmm, Wrong in my opinion. If xinetd would have its own update-inetd and software is installed in xinetd and $ADMIN decides to switch back to traditional inetd the configuration is inconsistent. Also the way around. It might be a better way to have a lintian warning if a package has a update-inetd call and no xinetd config or vis versa. Note that xinetd do not need the existence of a update-inetd tool ever. And other, newer inetd might be the same. Maybe there can be a dh_ tool for creating all needed inetd configurations. I think that all the stuff should allow to switch from whatever inetd to another without loosing configuration (coming from the package). And there is only two ways how you can do that: 1. Creating all needed configurations at build time 2. Having a single update-inetd which create ALL configurarions at install time. But this make update-inetd package as dependency for installation and NOT inet-superserver (the later can be suggestion as well.)
