[Bug 884402] Re: package libapache2-mod-shib2 2.4.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Steve Langasek]

The synopsis in the update-rc.d manpage is:

       update-rc.d   [-n]   name   start|stop  NN  runlevel  [runlevel]...   .
              start|stop NN runlevel [runlevel]...  . ...

Note that the first runlevel after 'start|stop NN' is not an optional
argument.  I frankly don't know why this is working in Debian and not in
Ubuntu, but libapache2-mod-shib2 is clearly not using the documented
interface here.

If you don't want stop links in any runlevels, the standard way to do
this is to just call:

  update-rc.d shibd start 20 2 3 4 5 . >/dev/null
