Public bug reported:
Under certain circumstances update-rc.d does not disable packages from
starting, specifically on runlevel 1.
In this example I'm using dns-clean service provided by pppconfig
pppconfig enables the following service via postinst:
#!/bin/sh
# Postinst for pppconfig by John Hasler 1999-2005
# Any possessor of a copy of this program may treat it as if it
# were in the public domain. I waive all rights.
set -e
if [ -x "`which update-menus`" ] ; then
update-menus
fi if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt "2.3.18ubuntu2"; then
update-rc.d -f dns-clean remove >/dev/null
fi
update-rc.d dns-clean start 70 1 2 3 4 5 . >/dev/null
exit 0
After installation of pppconfig package the following rc.N symlinks are set for
this service:
# ls -1 /etc/rc*/*dns-clean
/etc/rc1.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc2.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc3.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc4.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc5.d/S70dns-clean
When attempting to disable this is what I get:
# /usr/sbin/update-rc.d dns-clean disable
update-rc.d: warning: start runlevel arguments (none) do not match dns-clean
Default-Start values (1 2 3 4 5)
Disabling system startup links for /etc/init.d/dns-clean ...
Removing any system startup links for /etc/init.d/dns-clean ...
/etc/rc1.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc2.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc3.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc4.d/S70dns-clean
/etc/rc5.d/S70dns-clean
Adding system startup for /etc/init.d/dns-clean ...
/etc/rc1.d/S70dns-clean -> ../init.d/dns-clean
/etc/rc2.d/K30dns-clean -> ../init.d/dns-clean
/etc/rc3.d/K30dns-clean -> ../init.d/dns-clean
/etc/rc4.d/K30dns-clean -> ../init.d/dns-clean
/etc/rc5.d/K30dns-clean -> ../init.d/dns-clean
Note that the service is still disabled on runlevel 1, the expected
outcome is to disable runlevel 1 as well.
