I also was upgrading from openbsd-inetd version 0.20050402-4.
But downgrading and upgrading again does not reproduce the problem.

I had upgraded a lot of packages as I got the error. For me it's the
combination of openbsd-inetd and sendfile which reproduces the error.
The openbsd-inetd package stops and starts the inetd correctly. But
the problem seems to be that the upgrade of sendfile starts the inetd
process if it is not running.


openbsd-inetd and sendfile upgrade:

  # dpkg -i openbsd-inetd_0.20050402-4_i386.deb
  # dpkg -i sendfile_2.1b-3_i386.deb

  # ps ax|grep inetd
  15879 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/inetd
