Sid Unstable and Jessie Testing have moved on past hard listed boot number ordering and have gone entirely to dependency based booting. It means you are running Testing or Unstable. It means that some package that you installed is still using the previous interface with the hard set boot order numbers which are now being ignored. You can ignore it. Or you can file a bug against the package that produces it that they need to update their update-rc.d call syntax. Personally I would ignore it. Eventually there will be an automated test that will detect all of the packages using it and bugs will be filed. See this message for the details: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/05/msg01109.html ... None of this should affect anyone since in practice there will be no noticable difference other than the addition of a warning if the start or stop actions are used. Bob
