Package: sysvconfig
Version: 0.80
Severity: normal

According to the extended description, sysvconfig supports "View all services,
each with its status and a brief description.". Unfortunately,
service --status-all is disabled due to lack of status action support by most
Debian init scripts.

It's much worse than that.  Some scripts do the wrong thing when called
with arguments they do not understand.
