sysvinit (2.86.ds1-18) unstable; urgency=low

  In version 2.86.ds1-16 of the sysv-rc package released 2006-09-06,
  the update-rc.d script was broken.  When used to to update symlinks
  it would remove all symlinks for a init.d script if such symlinks
  existed, and add them if they were missing.  This broke all packages
  being upgraded after the new version was installed, as their init.d
  scripts will no longer be executed.  This problem was fixed in
  version 2.86.ds1-18, but the broken packages will stay broken until
  their postinst scripts are executed again.

  Those with packages being broken from this bug can fix it by using
  'apt-get --reinstall install package' on the affected packages.  A
  quick way out is to reinstall all the packages with scripts in
  /etc/init.d/.

      apt-get --reinstall install -y $p
    done
