Package: argus-server
Version: 1:2.0.6.fixes.1-1
Severity: normal

/etc/default/argus-server defines the variables
STARTONBOOT and DIALUP

but /etc/init.d/argus-server does 

: . $DEFAULTS
: 
: if [ "$STARTUP" = "dialup" ] || [ "$STARTUP" = "none" ]; then
:     exit 1
: fi

So even though I have STARTONBOOT=0 argus-server will still be started.

It looks like a change in one of those files was not propagated to the other.

I have fixed it by adding "STARTUP=none" to /etc/default/argus-server, but I 
realize that the maintainer may want to update /etc/init.d/argus-server instead.

Cheers,
Anders
