You are correct in my omission of a build dependency in dpkg-dev (>= 1.15.7), but you are incorrect in the mechanisms invoked. I have used the explicit make directive "export" in order to support "stable/squeeze". I have not used the switch "--export" from "dpkg-buildflags". Thus version 1.15.7 is the correct level. > * Please document why you are overriding > init.d-script-possible-missing-stop.

Both these are connected. Investigating this further, I observe incomplete behaviour of "update-rc.d" caused by "insserv". The serious problem is that I am not able to reactivate the service after a sejour into runlevel 1. A rebuilt package with Default-Start: S 2 3 4 5 Default-Stop: 0 1 6 is never restarted after # init 1 # exit and in addition "insserv" is never admitting the new starting links in "/etc/rc{2,3,4,5}.d/S??downtimed". Ideas to resolve this? This must be result in order to update the package properly, and to allow "downtimed" to resume service after the administrator has temporarily entered single-user mode. Had he gone into singel-user mode already at boot time, then the mechanisms are already in place, but not from within a running system. There is still an override needed to get "S" as a runlevel for starting "downtimed". I want to keep this in order to have the service detect a booted system at the earliest possible time.
