There are 3 error messages
Error binding socket: Address family not supported by protocol
One would assume that they come from one of the previously started
daemons (gpm, exim4, dictd, etc.). But in fact they come from neither
of them. They come from guacd, for which no "Starting ..." message
has been output due to:
[ "$VERBOSE" != no ] && log_daemon_msg "Starting $DESC" "$NAME"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
as recommended by "/etc/init.d/skeleton". This is inconsistent. Either
all the "Starting ..." messages should be displayed by default or none
of them should be displayed. Ditto for the "Stopping ..." messages.
I think that by default, during the boot, the user should be informed
of what is started (and if it failed or not). Thus VERBOSE should be
set to "yes" by default (or the VERBOSE test shouldn't be done for the
"Starting ..." and "Stopping ..." messages).
