[Bug 1369493] Re: update-rc.d: warning: start and stop actions are no longer supported; falling back to defaults

[William Geiger]

I am also getting this on Xenial I found a bug report on Debian  that
discusses this issue and the causes. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=718232 The last post on Debian claims that this
was fixed with resolvconf (1.75). I have resolvconf (1.781.78ubuntu2) on
my system and the bug is still there, don't know if there is a
difference between the resolvconf on Debian and Ubuntu. Mantainer might
want to take a look at what the did with the Debian package.

Hope this helps.
