There is nothing we can do in those cases except using dh_installinit -n and writing the invoke-rc.d stanzas in the right places. I'd suggest to revert that change as some packages may work as is, and be broken by a change so near from the freeze. and the final fix has to be that (in a compat mode of 6 ?) debhelper unstacks the *rm calls in the reverse order of the *inst ones, which is a thing taht really makes sense anyway (IMHO). -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madcoder@debian.org OOO http://www.madism.org
