[Bug 1320415] Re: postfix started in single user mode during upgrade

[Steve Langasek]

When you say "single user mode", is that runlevel 1 or runlevel S?

I can confirm that, because update-rc.d creates a K link for postfix in
/etc/rc1.d, but not in /etc/rcS.d, invoke-rc.d will not detect a
"policy" for the init script in runlevel S and will assume that it
should take the requested action.

It's probably a good idea to file this bug upstream with Debian; I doubt
we want to diverge from upstream on this corner case, considering how
hairy the code is.
