This should be fixed in the testing version. Uses new class action script to to inetd.conf/inetconv stuff. Needs to be tested though.

The key to this bug is to ensure clean update by sorting out the mess left by removal of the old package.

Notes from IRC:

16:45:04 <Dagobert> Ok, It should on preinstall for fixing call the following lines:
16:45:04 <Dagobert> build8st# mv /etc/inetd.conf /etc/inet/inetd.conf
16:45:05 <Dagobert> build8st# mv /etc/inetd.conf.O /etc/inetd.conf
16:46:01 <Dagobert> build8st# mv /etc/services /etc/inet/services
16:46:01 <Dagobert> build8st# mv /etc/services.O /etc/services
16:46:15 <Dagobert> And trigger on [ -f /etc/inetd.conf.O ]
16:46:36 <Dagobert> Best location would be pkgutil update hook
16:48:11 <Dagobert> It may go into preinstall script, but that would also trigger when some unware admin make inetd.conf.o himself
16:48:43 <Dagobert> It should for sanity check the link for name and destination also
