update-rc.d and rare start/stop runlevels



Dear all,

I am packaging `downtimed`, a daemon for the recording of
system downtimes. Taking its purpose into account the obvious
start and stop runlevels are:

    Default-Start :  S
    Default-Stop  :  0 6

since the daemon should be running as long as ever possible.

However, update-rc.d disagrees vividly with me (and possibly
also insserv), since it prefers to call aloud

   update-rc.d: warning: downtimed start runlevel arguments (2 3 4 5)
        do not match LSB Default-Start values (S)
   update-rc.d: warning: downtimed stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6)
        do not match LSB Default-Stop values (0 6)

Am I in error, or is there a proper way of silencing these
warning messages?

Best regards,
  Mats Erik Andersson, DM
