I'm closing this bug report as this is, to me, not something that should
handled on the packaging side. From update-rc.d(8):
A common system administration error is to delete the links with the
thought that this will
"disable" the service, i.e., that this will prevent the service from
being started. However,
if all links have been deleted then the next time the package is
upgraded, the package's
postinst script will run update-rc.d again and this will reinstall links
at their factory de-
fault locations. The correct way to disable services is to configure the
service as stopped in
all runlevels in which it is started by default. In the System V init
system this means renam-
ing the service's symbolic links from S to K. .P The script .BI
/etc/init.d/ name must exist
before update-rc.d is run to create the links.
Running 'update-rc.d chrony disable' as root should work too.

Have a good day,
