| update-rc.d foo disable is indeed convenient.
| 
| update-rc.d and policy-rc.d are currently two separate interfaces. If I
| want to make sure that a service is never started I need to modify both:
| 
| 1) policy-rc.d to make sure that the service does not start when the
| package is installed/upgraded/logrotated

The only reason for having a policy-rc.d would be to make sure it does
not start on initial installation.  If invoke-rc.d starts services on
upgrades after you've done update-rc.d disable $service, that sound like
a bug.
