Public bug reported: Binary package hint: sysv-rc
ii sysv-rc 2.86.ds1-14.1ubuntu16 (Ubuntu 6.10) The man page for invoke-rc.d says: invoke-rc.d itself only pays attention to the current runlevel; it will block any attempts to start a service in a runlevel in which the ser‐ vice is disabled. and FILES /etc/rc?.d/* System V runlevel configuration (if the sysv-rc package is not being used). When my laptop wakes up from hibernation and tries to start mysql if possible (see /etc/default/acpi-support and look for STOP_SERVICES), invoke-rc.d starts mysql. I don't have any /etc/rc?.d/S*mysql* files (I removed them because I don't ever want mysqld to be automatically started), but the man page says that these are only used if the sysv-rc package is not being used. The man page does not say how to disable a service in a runlevel if you *are* using sysv-rc. Please update the invoke-rc.d manpage in the sysv-rc package to tell people how to disable packages in a runlevel since "update-rc.d -f $package remove" doesn't do it.
