Bug Description

Binary package hint: sysv-rc-conf

sysv-rc-conf sometimes does, but sometimes doesn't mention rcS.d

1)Running it interactively, (sudo sysv-rc-conf), all the runlevels, INCLUDING "S" are listed.

service 1 2 3 4 5 0 6 S #table heading
apache [] [x] [x] [x] [x] [] [] [] #the apache line from the table

2)Running it non-interactively, the "S" runlevel is sometimes omitted.

[rjn@caramel ~]$ sudo sysv-rc-conf --list apache2
apache2 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off

rjn@caramel ~]$ sudo sysv-rc-conf --list udev
udev S:on

I think that these behaviours are inconsistent, and it would be clearer if (2) always gave a complete listing of the runlevels in the same way as (1).
[It would also make it easier to parse automatically by a script]
