Title:
  dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf causes upstart-job to run which prints
  warning message

Status in “debconf” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When running dpkg-reconfigure I don't think I should get a warning
  about something over which I have no control, namely, the running of
  /lib/init/upstart-job by dpkg-reconfigure.

      # dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical resolvconf
      Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
      utility, e.g. service resolvconf start

      Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
      Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start resolvconf
