It definitelly sucks to erase the set of links and get them back after the
package is upgraded.
We need either the much discussed mechanism to avoid getting packages up from
a common config storage or a way to store the desired setting in a update-rc.d
related database, so that package upgrades that call the re-set of a link need
a -f (force) to re-create links that the root has disabled.
