Same thing on my testing box: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src/bitlbee/pkg/bitlbee-1.2$ sudo update-inetd --debug --verbose --remove '.*/usr/sbin/bitlbee' Processing /etc/inetd.conf Using mode "remove", group "OTHER", pattern "" and seperator "#<off># " ARGUMENT: .*/usr/sbin/bitlbee It's extremely annoying that the command suddenly changed behaviour, even though the regex-syntax was, AFAIK, documented and is still widely used. Since my package allows the user to change the port number used for the service, I now have no way to use update-inetd to remove/update the entry, without still knowing this port number.
