Lintian tag: maintainer-script-calls-service
Type: error
Description (from lintian-explain-tags)
The maintainer script apparently runs the service command. This command is
reserved for local administrators and must never be used by a Debian
package.
Please replace with calls to update-rc.d(8) and invoke-rc.d(8). If your
package installs this service, this can be automated using
dh_installinit(1) or dh_installsystemd(1).
Please refer to Interfacing with init systems (Section 9.3.3) in the
Debian Policy Manual for details.
