apt-get and missing init scripts
I'm in the middle of building a custom squid package (on Sarge).
Long story short, there isn't a /etc/init.d/squid anymore and apt seems to think
there should be. When I run:
apt-get install squid
I get errors like:
apt-get install --reinstall squid

Setting up squid (2.5.9-10sarge2) ...
update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/squid: file does not exist
invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/squid not found.
dpkg: error processing squid (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 100
Errors were encountered while processing:
squid
I've tried creating a dummy script and apt-get runs it when
I 'apt-get remove squid', but doesn't remove the init script or
replace it when I
apt-get install.
How do I tell apt to overwrite all files on install? That'd work I think.
