I'm currently downloading version 3.1.2-3 to see if it has already been fixed there. /etc/init.d/xfs: starts xfs in the foreground. It is not a daemon, so does not fork into the background by itself. I added an '&'. When called with 'stop', it tried to start xfs. I changed it to call 'start-stop-daemon'. /etc/rc6.d/K1xfs - I changed this to be K99xfs, and started getting output at shutdown again. It didn't seem to be getting stopped with such a "high" priority number. Perhaps there is a problem with init? xbase.postrm: Doesn't call 'update-rc.d' to remove the xfs entries.

This should only happen if the postrm is called with `purge' as its argument (as that means the user said `dpkg --purge' rather than just wanting a removal or upgrade).

I now renumbered xfs and xdm to K10, which is OK. This is still a bug in xbase-3.1.2-3 - I checked last night. >> xbase.postrm: >> Doesn't call 'update-rc.d' to remove the xfs entries. >This should only happen if the postrm is called with `purge' as its >argument (as that means the user said `dpkg --purge' rather than just >wanting a removal or upgrade) This is inside a case 'purge' block. It does remove the xdm entries, but forgets the xfs entries.
