"expected to uninstall?" says who? as the original submitter of this bug, let me be the one to point out this phrase from the description: "this might be to temporarily disable a serial line getty, or whatever." that doesn't sound like a reason to uninstall to me.
in any case, i think this bug has been fixed for some time: you can already comment out the "start" line, or, apparently, add a "manual" line. and if the (dumb, in my opinion) requirement for using a .conf suffix (why are we trying to reinvent DOS?) is fully implemented, then renaming the file to "myservice.disabled" should accomplish the same thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94065 Title: init: add non-destructive means to disable a job -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
