Package: debhelper
Version: 2.0.86
Severity: normal
The postinst snippet just uses "/etc/init.d/foo start" without
checking whether the server has been deactivated ('K??foo' instead of
'S??foo' in /etc/rcN.d where N is the current runlevel).
This causes, as an example, yiff-server to not be able to configure
itself - deactivated because for some reason I cannot configure a
sound driver now.

Changes:
debian-policy (3.5.7.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Fixed some broken hrefs in links
* No longer use local debiandoc stuff (it's been fixed upstream)
* Added table of contents (index.html) to policy-process.sgml, fixing
the new error reported to bug #137521 closes: Bug#137521
* Fixed a couple of typos closes: Bug#139832
* Ran through the policy document looking for long instances of text in
the <tt> tag, and changed it to <file> where appropriate. This is
since the <file> tag can handle line breaking, but the <t> flag does
not. closes: Bug#139820
* Change the requirement to ask permission to make devices to merely
requiring a notification. closes: Bug#106280
* Added a build dependson docbook utils. closes: Bug#154660
* Since this is being built with a newer version of debiandoc-sgml, this
should display better with lynx. closes: Bug#153704
* Add in the crypto-in-main amendment. closes: Bug#81852, Bug#144411
* we no longer have task packages, instead, we define tasks using a
special field in the control file (and these should be added only
after discussion on the mailing lists) closes: Bug#97755
* Clarify wording in the section for packages providing fonts.
closes: Bug#109672
* Fix the doc base file for policy process closes: Bug#137521, Bug#147554
closes: Bug#146756
* using set -e is not dubious advice. Rejecting this. closes: Bug#139969
* Make the directory one is building under ./debian/ be up to the
maintainer, instead of mandating ./debian/tmp/ closes: Bug#144297
* Add a standards version closes: Bug#145067
* Added virtual package debconf-2.0 closes: Bug#151328
* Added The Window Manager Specification Project support to the default
window manager selection mechanism closes: Bug#155680
* The confusion between /var/mail and /var/spool/mail seems to have been
disambiguated. closes: Bug#114949
* Mention the new Build-Depend-Indep semantic and the new
build-indep/build-arch rules in upgrading checklist closes: Bug#116134
* Made package naming rules in policy consistent. I did not eliminate
the duplication, since I don't want to make major changes to the flow,
since we are supposed to be re-writing policy anyway. closes: Bug#131441
* Clarified wording about cases where we may have concrete and virtual
packages with the same name. closes: Bug#134977
* Fixed typo 'be be' closes: Bug#138681
* Fixed typo in appendix G -- example of diversion closes: Bug#140697
* fix typo shlib: -> shlibs: closes: Bug#141903
* Provide a link between two sections dealing with virtual packages.
closes: Bug#143770
* Fixed xtifr's email address in the menu policy closes: Bug#152965
* Allow shared library names to be have a hyphen between library name
and soversion if the library name ends in a number. closes: Bug#100472
* Permit some libraries to only install static libs. closes: Bug#100346
* Remove the debug option, add noopt closes: Bug#157131, Bug#113525
* provide dhcp-client virtual package. closes: Bug#154142
* We do not need bits in policy that ``should not be enforced''.
closes: Bug#150456
* We are building this with the latest debianndoc-sgml. closes: Bug#146703
* Finish incorporating all of the accepted changes in Bug#72335, and
this closes: Bug#141307, Bug#156546
* Added virtual package aspell-dictionary closes: Bug#139067
* Added virtual package radius-server closes: Bug#118608
* Clarifying manual pages is not a policy issue. closes: Bug#112828
* Corrected the ldconfig handling instructions. closes: Bug#111025
* Not a policy issue. closes: Bug#106826
* Removed the /usr/doc/ symlink clause. closes: Bug#47298, Bug#69311

... The neutron bomb is a nuclear device that kills people without
destroying buildings. Many people feel this is inhumane; they much
prefer the old- fashioned humane-type nuclear devices that kill
people *and* destroy buildings. Western Europe's reaction to the
neutron bomb has been mixed: most buildings are for it, and most
people are against it, on the grounds that it might kill them.
They're always wallowing in sentiment, those Western Europeans. Dave
