OK. But since I can start it from the command line with the normal arguments,
maybe the problem is with the daemon tools packages that are used by the
init.d startup scripts. Then again, most every other daemon is going through
this (including lsb-base?) without a hitch.
Anyway, lsb-base 3.2-8 or -7 from testing?
