It's not really > possible to answer the question for some hypothetical issue. Maintainer script calls invoke-rc.d foo stop. invoke-rc.d looks for a 'foo' upstart job and finds none running. So it calls /etc/init.d/foo stop, which fails. Does invoke-rc.d return success because there was no upstart job running, or failure because the init script failed? -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
