[Bug 433544] Re: “service foo reload” complains about using the init script and recommends using service

[somekool]

I still have that bug... 3 years later running 12.04

mathieu at Miyauchi-QC-PC:~$ service autofs disable
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service autofs disable

The script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart
job, but disable is not supported for Upstart jobs.
mathieu at Miyauchi-QC-PC:~$ type service
service is hashed (/usr/sbin/service)
mathieu at Miyauchi-QC-PC:~$

mathieu at Miyauchi-QC-PC:/etc$ do-release-upgrade 
Checking for a new Ubuntu release
No new release found
