Title:
  aptitude upgrade re-enables mysql rc scripts

Status in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: aptitude

  Upgrading previously installed software fails to check whether the
  package's rc scripts have been disabled and enables them regardless.
  If an rc script has been disabled (update-rc.d -f remove) it should
  remain disabled across upgrades (and "safe-upgrade"s).  This flaw can
  be triggered in many packages but the ones noticed most recently are
  mysql*.  Have not checked sources but it probably should be patched in
  aptitude, synaptic, apt-get, dpkg, and any other package management
  utilities that perform upgrades.
