[Bug 1273462] Re: Users can mistakenly run init.d scripts and cause problems if an equivalent upstart job already exists

[Robie Basak]

@Martin

Note that this is bug a regression - previously, before the (I presume)
dh_installinit change, /etc/init.d/foo was a symlink to /lib/init
/upstart-job so a user running /etc/init.d/foo by hand was redirected to
upstart anyway. So while I appreciate that a user might now be getting
desired behaviour by calling /etc/init.d/foo directly on some package
somewhere, it seems unlikely that this change will regress by
redirecting to the upstart job as we were doing for that package on a
previous release - the window for that behaviour to have diverged is
fairly small.
