[Pkg-firebird-general] Bug#257268: firebird-s32-server: Firebird 1.0.3-1 deleted my /etc/init.d/firebird script

[Jaume Sabater]

Package: firebird-s32-server
Version: 1.0.3-1
Severity: important


I had firebird-s32-server 1.0.2-2 installed, then I updated to 1.0.3-1.
The update worked fine.

A few days after, I tried apt-get install --reinstall
firebird-s32-server, which seemed to work fine, but script
/etc/init.d/firebird disappeared.

I have tried a fresh install on another machine and the same thing
happens. So, it _seems_ that it works fine when updating from 1.0.2-2 to 1.0.3-1 but it does not if no older version is present.

All apt-get commands included not only firebird-s32-server but

firebird-s32-server
firebird-server-common
firebird-utils
libfirebird-s32
