Package: specter
Version: 1.4-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Init script returns a non zero status when called to stop / start an
already stopped / started specter daemon.
This has unexcepted behaviour when trying to restart specter or to
uninstall it when daemon is already stopped.

An example output when trying to remove the package and specter daemon
is already stopped:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  specter*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 42 not upgraded.
After this operation, 401kB disk space will be freed.
