Bug#490893: Could the portmap issue be caused by the missing K??portmap symlink

2008-09-26 Thread Joerg Schuetter
Could the portmap issue be caused by the missing K??portmap symlink
in rc1.d? By running update-rc.d -f portmap remove and then the command 
update-rc.d portmap start 43 S . start 32 0 6 . stop 81 1 .
from the postinst-file the required stop script is in rc1.d.
To prevent tampering to much with these links it could be split up in
for single steps. This makes sure the link in rc1.d will be created even
if the creation of the other links failed (since already existing with a
different strt number). In my grown system I already had a few links to
portmap, so it was not possible to add new ones.

best regards
  Joerg

Note the bug report is about runlevel 0, not 1.  Start scripts in
runlevel 0 and 6 are special, they are called with a stop argument.

If in any runlevel a link already exists, update-rc.d will not create
new ones, true.  That ensures local modifications are preserved.  This
does not explain why portmap isn't stopped _despite_ the link in
runlevel 0 exists.
