Stopping daemons from starting on install



Hi all,

When one installs a package containing a daemon of some sort, it is usually started up automatically. Debootstrap gets over that by installing a fake start-stop-daemon that doesn't actually do the job, but is there a better way of disabling this behaviour when packages are installed / updated? I'm building an embedded system and I chroot into its root directory and perform installs / updates using the standard tools, but I don't want the freshly installed / updated daemons starting up on my host system.

Has anybody done this before?

Many thanks,
Chris Boot
