Looking at the code

    $ git grep -i chkconfig

this seems to happen for the following distributions.

        #if defined (HAVE_SYSV_COMPAT) && (defined(TARGET_FEDORA) || defined(TARGET_MANDRIVA) || defined(TARGET_SUSE) || defined(TARGET_MEEGO) || defined(TARGET_ALTLINUX) || defined(TARGET_MAGEIA))

If I am not mistaken, Debian uses `update-rc.d` for that purpose.

Does someone know if it is feasible to just change the one variable (and
options) containing the path to the utilities and reuse the error
handling or will that not work?


Thanks,
