While integrating insserv into Debian, insserv was made to be quite
verbose about differences between declared LSB configuration and 'on disk'
configuration for all scripts, not just the one being operated on.
It may be time to revisit this feature and cosmetically castrate it by making
insserv only complain about the script which it is currently acting upon.
However, removing this noisy output may make it easy for buggy packages to
avoid scrutiny.
Thanks, Kel.
