[Pkg-gridengine-devel] Bug#597898: gridengine-exec: manual config debconf setting does not prevent daemon from starting

[John Bazik]

Package: gridengine-exec
Severity: normal

If the 'gridengineconfig' debconf setting is set to false, no configuration
is generated, but the execd daemon is still started.  Not finding its
config, it complains and eventually dies.  If manual configuration is
an package option, it shouldn't start the daemon.

This is probably also true for gridengine-master.

I'm running 6.2-4 (lenny), but I checked 6.2u5-1 and it looks the
same.
