[Bug 1115053] Re: Multiple open vulnerabilities in tomcat7 in 12.04 and 11.10

[Jamie Strandboge]

One could also adjust the scripts to stop. Again, from the man page:
       A common system administration error is to delete the  links  with  the
       thought  that  this  will  "disable"  the service, i.e., that this will
       prevent the service from being started.  However,  if  all  links  have
       been  deleted then the next time the package is upgraded, the package’s
       postinst script will run update-rc.d  again  and  this  will  reinstall
       links  at  their factory default locations.  The correct way to disable
       services is to configure the service as stopped  in  all  runlevels  in
       which it is started by default.  In the System V init system this means
       renaming the service’s symbolic links from S to K.
