Bug Description
I am installing bootp, but it doesn't have a proper configuration. the documentation referst to inetd.conf, but the actual update-inetd says xinetd is not fully supported.
Running: sudo update-inetd --add "bootps\
If you want it to use inetd.conf you have to set UPDATE_
I would propose:
a) Update the bootpd man page to reflect the entry needed in xinetd.conf (thought looking at the other examples might be easy to do)
b) Create a file /etc/xinetd.
I may say that this is because tftpd installed xinetd, but as it can be a usual application to use in PXE netboot, this case should be considered

Thank you
