Package: pdns-recursor Version: 3.1.7.1-4 Severity: normal Hello.
I have pdns-recursor installed, but disabled on system startup: $ cat /etc/default/pdns-recursor # Variables for PowerDNS recursor # # Set START to yes to start the pdns-recursor START=no Upgrade fails with the following error: Preparing to replace pdns-recursor 3.1.7.1-4 (using .../pdns-recursor_3.1.7.2-1_amd64.deb) ...

Errors were encountered while processing: pdns-recursor Perhaps init.d script should check if START is no at the beginning and exit with success status. But may be there is a better way to fix this.
